Skilled Marksmanship: An American Tradition
Our goal is to inspire Americans with our amazing history and return America to a nation of Riflemen again. You can’t write the story of America without including several chapters about the marksmanship skills and bravery of our forefathers. At Project Appleseed, we honor the pursuit of liberty of our ancestors who fought so bravely to secure it. We teach the art of rifle and pistol marksmanship during 1 or 2-day clinics. We welcome Americans of all ages and experience levels. Owning and mastering a rifle or pistol is part of our American heritage.
Today, Project Appleseed is not just a one-time event; it is a community of like-minded individuals passionate about marksmanship and history. By participating in a Project Appleseed event, you become part of this vibrant community. After completing the program, we encourage you to stay connected through local events, online forums, and social media groups. This community provides ongoing support, mentorship, and opportunities for further growth and development in marksmanship. With a full calendar of events, Project Appleseed is here to make sure these timeless principles live on for generations to come.

Sauer Saved US Citizenship. Was SCOTUS Listening?
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/04/sauer_saved_us_citizenship_was_scotus_listening.html
The solicitor general’s arguments in the birthright citizenship case now before the Supreme Court should remind us all why and how we’re Americans…Let us hope that SCOTUS heard the profound truth underlying Sauer’s plain statements. Citizenship in America is not determined by British law, dirt, blood, or getting arrested. To again quote Sauer, “it’s a reciprocal relationship between the citizen” and the unique privileges, responsibility, and opportunity of being a political member of the American republic.

California Passes Bill To Criminalize Undercover Journalism
https://gellerreport.com/2026/04/breaking-california-passes-bill-to-criminalize-undercover-journalism.html/
What is California’s solution to the massive fraud being expsoed in undercover investigations?
Why, to criminalize such investigations, of course! Such naked corruption is without precedent.
The Assembly Judiciary Committee voted 11-2 to make investigative journalism illegal. Their bill would impose civil sanctions of $4,000 minimum if an immigrant services fraudster wants to be off camera and takes the issue to court. The fraudster can also pursue an injunction disallowing them from being exposed on camera by a journalist for up to four years. If the journalist refuses to take the initial video in which the fraudster was exposed down, they may face up to three times the amount of the initial civil penalty: $12,000. The bill protects “immigrant service centers” like fake Somali daycares or Los Angeles hospice centers from legitimate journalists by classifying them as “harassers.” In the worst case, if the Journalist is accused of doxxing a fraudster or posing an “imminent threat,” they can get criminal charges and $10,000 in fines. If this bill passes fully, and, Nick or anyone else were brave enough to film more ghost-client daycares or hospices, they’d be under severe financial and legal scrutiny

Iran’s Crown Rises: Pahlavi Ignites a Generational Revolt, Iran’s Reckoning Begins in Stockholm
https://gellerreport.com/2026/04/irans-crown-rises-pahlavi-ignites-a-generational-revolt-irans-reckoning-begins-in-stockholm.html
The marble halls of the Swedish Riksdag echoed with the footsteps of a man who carries the weight of a thousand-year throne and the hopes of a fractured nation. Reza Pahlavi did more than walk into a legislative chamber; he reclaimed a seat on the global stage…It signals the birth of a new Iranian era…Swedish legislators received him with the honors usually reserved for a head of state…The world must now choose. It can continue to trade with the executioners, or it can stand with the Lion. Pahlavi’s message to his supporters is clear: the end of the occupation is near. The sun rises in the West today, but it will set over a free Tehran tomorrow. The Prince has spoken, the people have risen, and the regime has failed.

Irish Patriots Are Fighting Back
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/irish-patriots-are-fighting-back
So you say you want a revolution? Well, take a look at what’s happening in Ireland right now. Tens of thousands of farmers, truckers, and other fed-up “normies” are taking to the streets of Dublin to protest fuel taxes, mass immigration, and poverty-inducing “climate change” policies. For the most part, corporate news propagandists in both Europe and North America are intentionally ignoring the combustible situation. Just when I had begun to think that all the “fighting Irish” had moved to America, the Old Country has started to show signs of life. Perhaps there are still a few irascible pugilists willing to bash heads and take on the globalist empire after all….******Conor McGregor issued a bit of an ultimatum to the ruling class after the government mobilized the military and sent tanks to intimidate the protesters…Globalists call the will of the people “populism” and the will of bureaucrats “democracy.” But when enough people decide to fight back against the bureaucrats, the spirit of revolution hangs in the air. Perhaps that’s what we’re seeing right now in Ireland — a fresh reminder of Thomas Jefferson’s observation that no “country can preserve its liberties” if its “rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance.”
After all, the “tree of liberty must be refreshed … with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.”

Tom Steyer’s Latest Incendiary ICE Proposal and Call to Arms Is So Outlandish, Even Newsom Might Blush

He doesn’t just want to refuse to cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), as so many blue state politicians do because they love illegal immigrants — he wants to jail agents and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) personnel. It’s like he’s openly calling for an insurrection. You don’t have to believe me, he’ll tell you himself in his article titled: “How California Can Put ICE in Jail”…I read the rest of Steyer’s statement so you don’t have to.
To me, it sounds like an open call to violence against the federal government, an exhortation to “take to the streets,” to ignore SCOTUS, and to start what would amount to a civil war:

Tom Steyer’s Radical Campaign Promise: Abolish ICE, Jail ICE Agents, and Turn CA Into a Sanctuary Warzone
https://twitchy.com/justmindy/2026/04/15/tom-steyer-california-governor-ice-n2427159
Apparently, Tom Steyer is kicking his campaign into overdrive now that he got his wish and Swalwell is out of the Governor race in California. His new platform: how he’ll imprison ICE officers.
The true test of a leader is not who they disparage and attack, but who they defend and uplift. Donald Trump attacks and robs the most vulnerable in our society, while protecting and enriching the most powerful.
I’ve made it clear: ICE must be abolished. ICE is acting like a criminal organization, carrying out indiscriminate racial profiling and using violence, intimidation, terrorism, and the murder of Americans to extend Trump’s rule by fear.
It’s not enough for Democrats to simply engage in rhetoric, and “stand” against ICE or Trump. California must build a system that fights fire with fire. To stop this authoritarian takeover, we must counter ICE head-on, and go after both their agents on the streets and their leadership within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
How do we do this? The same way we took on the mob. Put ICE agents and their leadership in jail for their crimes, because that’s how you take on a violent extremist group and win.
As Governor, I will do the following five things. Each point builds on one another to create a comprehensive strategy that gives the State of California the power it needs to take on ICE and win.
First, I will go after ICE’s modus operandi: using racial discrimination to detain, arrest, attack, and brutalize Americans. I will pass aggressive legislation that builds on current California statutes and outlaws any law enforcement agency from profiling anyone based on their race, ethnicity, language, occupation, or location. We are done letting federal badges serve as a shield for abuse in our state.
Second, I will give the state Attorney General the authority to hold ICE’s leadership accountable for violence. My plan will pursue supervisory liability. This body of law empowers the California justice system to criminally prosecute and imprison not just the ICE agents who are committing these crimes, but the leadership directing them to do so.
Third, I will appoint and fund a special investigative unit and work with the Attorney General who is specifically tasked with enforcing these California laws, including laws related to the conditions at detention facilities. This investigative unit will collect the evidence the Attorney General can use to prosecute offenders and their leadership.
Fourth, I will bring those detained and kidnapped by ICE back home by creating a much larger and stronger immigration legal defense infrastructure in our state – funding for more attorneys, investigators, and accredited representatives, as well as legal aid and law school programs—to assist and help those who have been imprisoned without due process.
Getting the thousands of unlawfully detained immigrant men, women, and children the legal representation they need is one of the most direct ways to defend them from deportation. Data shows that 62 percent of immigrants without a lawyer are ordered deported, compared to 27 percent of those who have legal assistance. Backed by expanded protections against racial profiling, legal representation empowers detained individuals to report ICE’s crimes to the special investigator and California’s Attorney General, and take the agents to court.
And Fifth, I will launch a massive statewide “Know Your Rights” public education and public awareness campaign. Every Californian, regardless of their immigration status, should know their constitutional and legal rights if you are stopped, detained, or questioned by ICE agents, if you are assembled to protest against ICE, if you are filming ICE agent activities, or if you witness unlawful and illegal actions perpetrated by ICE agents.

The injuries sustained to the teacher were self-inflicted,”…the large police response as appropriate for the panic alarm. “This is what’s supposed to happen when we have threats on school campuses,” he added. “And that’s what you see here today. That’s why you see such a large law enforcement community here. We take it very seriously. And if it’s going to be a hoax, if you’re going to call in a hoax, we will hold you responsible for it.”…Splendora is a small Texas town of about 2,000 residents located 37 miles northeast of Houston.

She was understandably disturbed by a sound that many Americans would consider menacing or disruptive, or might associate with terror.

It should be expelled from the alliance, but of course because of the left’s determination to commit civilizational suicide, it will not be.

the ambitious headline revealing the latest ‘plan’ for Hormuz to come out of Europe, as it sits on the sidelines watching the US get potentially bogged down in the region following a month of heavy airstrikes on Iran: Europe drafts postwar plan to free up Strait of Hormuz without US…This is apparently a plan for after the main crisis is over, amid the strait still being blockaded (with the each warring side insisting it is they in control of the strategic chokepoint waterway). It seems the main idea is to eventually take the United States out of the equation, allowing only for the ‘neutral’ countries to free up and clean the Hormuz Strait……………..

Trump’s Blockade Is Breaking Iran… And European Elites Are Angry
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/trumps-blockade-breaking-iran-and-european-elites-are-angry
I think it’s vitally important to address some lies and disinformation being spread by propagandists and foreign agents online about the US blockade, so let’s quickly go down the list…
Lie #1: The US Is Blocking All Ships Traveling Through The Strait
Lie #2: Chinese Vessels Have Broken The Blockade, And The US Is Afraid
Lie #3: The Blockade Puts US Naval Ships At Serious Risk
Lie #4: Iran Is Used To Sanctions And Can Hold Out Longer Than The US
Lie #5: Iran Has Alternative Ways To Bypass The Blockade
Lie #6: The Chinese Will Intervene And Force The Strait To Reopen
Lie #7: The US Is Losing All Its Allies Over The Blockade
What the blockade (and the war in general) is doing is exposing the countries that were pretending to be our allies when it was convenient…my final point on the war. The fact that the European elites are suddenly so concerned with the US blockade, enough to call for a “coalition” to reopen the strait and “circumvent” the US, tells us all we need to know. I continue to believe that the globalists in these nations have been feeding off the US while at the same time organizing a “multicultural alliance” behind the scenes – A socialist new world order to supplant Western civilization and leave the US behind as a husk…Regardless of how you might feel personally about the Iran war, it is undeniable that the situation has revealed many of our supposed allies as enemies. In reality, they were always enemies. The only thing that has changed is that the truth is finally out in the open.

Jury Nullification is the Left’s Clear Option to Blow Up Justice

The left-leaning legal intelligentsia — the crowd that spent four years weaponizing the Department of Justice against Donald Trump, his associates and anyone who dared support him — has now cooked up a scheme to torch the American justice system from the inside out. – Jury nullification. – Rogue judges’ rulings to upend the president’s policies aren’t enough. What stands in their way? Juries. Of real Americans. The leftists say they have to go…Liberal attorneys, facing a Trump administration that is finally holding criminals accountable, are now peddling the idea that jurors should ignore the law entirely if they don’t like the politics of the prosecution. Let that sink in. Not “the evidence doesn’t support a conviction.” Not “the law is being misapplied.” But: We don’t like who’s being prosecuted, so the jury should acquit regardless of the facts. This is not justice. This is anarchy with a law degree.

The WallyWorld conceal carry Walk (also called the Wally Walk, Walmart Walk, or simply the “Wally World Walk”) is a longstanding informal tradition and rite of passage in the U.S. concealed carry community. “WallyWorld” is a common slang nickname for Walmart stores.
What It Is
It refers to a new or novice concealed carrier’s first (or early) public outing while legally carrying a concealed handgun. The person typically drives to a Walmart, parks, and walks around the store shopping for a while—often 30+ minutes—while testing their holster setup, concealment, comfort, and mental mindset in a real-world environment with crowds of people.

Ketanji Brown Jackson Publicly Attacks Her Supreme Court Colleagues for ‘Utterly Irrational’ Decisions

The high court’s decorum is well-documented history, with the warm respect and friendship shared between ideological opposites Justice Clarence Thomas and the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg being a prime example of that. These days, however, there hasn’t been much warmth or respect when it comes to the differing ideologies on the Supreme Court bench. Jackson blasted her fellow justices while giving a speech Monday at Yale Law School, particularly when it came to its handling of the emergency docket. “The court’s stay decisions can, at times, come across as utterly irrational,”…“The court has left confusion in its wake.”…“There is a serious concern that the Supreme Court’s modern stay practices are having an enormously disruptive and potentially corrosive effect.” Jackson further derided the other justices, claiming that their “scratch-paper musings” had deleterious effects on the considerations of lower courts.

Hollywood Sinks Its Own Ship, Proudly

, and his live audience: often thousands watching at once on streams. His influence is amplified by clips—his content spreads on platforms like TikTok/X far beyond his direct follower count. His real impact is less about raw numbers and more about engagement + controversy, which drives reach.

NYC Rejects ICE Detainer for Illegal Alien Charged with Murdering 4
https://www.westernjournal.com/nyc-rejects-ice-detainer-illegal-alien-charged-murdering-4/
Roman Ceron Amatitla, 38, faces charges of second-degree murder and first-degree arson in connection with a March 16 fire in Flushing that left four dead and injured seven others, according to Fox News. He was arraigned on the charges last week, according to WABC-TV. He is being held without bail, the station reported…“This monster set fire to a building and watched as innocent people, including a three-year-old, burned to death. New York City sanctuary politicians REFUSE to cooperate with ICE and are choosing to RELEASE this MURDERER onto New York streets,”…“New York’s sanctuary politicians must stop putting politics above public safety,”

Mamdani’s ‘Happy Tax Day’ Video Backfires Big Time Thanks to His Family’s Massive Uganda Compound
https://redstate.com/rusty-weiss/2026/04/17/mamdanis-happy-tax-day-video-instantly-backfires-thanks-to-his-familys-massive-uganda-compound-n2201400
Mamdani, as RedState’s Becca Lower reported, announced a new pied-à-terre tax on luxury second homes while filming outside hedge fund billionaire Ken Griffin’s $238 million penthouse. “When I ran for mayor, I said that I was going to tax the rich,” Mamdani says, before getting up close and personal with the viewer, tapping on the camera lens. “Well, today, we’re taxing the rich.” He then essentially makes an example of Griffin’s property, noting that he “does not live full-time in the city,” while threatening him with substantial new taxes. Katie Pavlich torched the socialist mayor by flipping his own rhetoric back at him while noting that his family owns property in which they do not live full-time. “Mamdani’s family doesn’t live full-time in Uganda, and yet they have a massive compound there,” she wrote. “Perhaps the government should confiscate it.” while Mamdani pushes higher taxes on under-occupied luxury properties in New York, his parents — filmmaker Mira Nair and professor Mahmood Mamdani — have themselves a five-bedroom villa on two lush acres in Buziga Hill, Uganda, complete with a lap pool and gardens overlooking Lake Victoria. They have it listed on Airbnb, by the way, for those interested. Looks super-sweet. It was used for little Zohran’s lavish three-day wedding celebration back in 2025.

Democrats Want a Gas Price Panic Because They Cannot Beat Trump on Strength
https://amac.us/newsline/economy/democrats-want-a-gas-price-panic-because-they-cannot-beat-trump-on-strength/
Democrats are betting higher gas prices will do what they cannot: weaken President Donald Trump’s advantage on national security. Their hope is that voters will fixate on the cost of a fill-up and forget why energy markets reacted to the Iran conflict in the first place. It is the same desperate strategy Americans have seen before. When they cannot win the bigger argument on national security, they retreat to the issue of costs and pray that short-term frustration will outweigh the far more serious stakes of American security and credibility. The Democrat strategy is not subtle. Quinnipiac found that 65% of voters blame Trump at least somewhat for the recent rise in gas prices due to the Iran war, and Democrats think they have found their midterm jackpot issue. They hope if they can keep the conversation centered on pain at the pump, voters will forget their failures on the border, inflation, crime, and foreign policy.

2A History: When the Militia Set Things Right
https://bearingarms.com/tomknighton/2026/04/17/2a-history-when-the-militia-set-things-right-n1232254
In American history, the militia was typically a body of men called up to fight, often beside regular troops of the standing army. They served as a supplemental force. When the National Guard was created, it tended to fill that role, though the militia has always existed on the books just the same. The truth is, though, that we haven’t been in a fight big enough to warrant the militia being called up, thankfully. Even World War II wasn’t that bad. But there have been times when militias formed to take on the government. We hear about Shay’s Rebellion or the Whiskey Rebellion, and many just nod their heads that these militias lost. Some even think that it’s proof that we can never remove a tyrannical government. The thing is, the militia has….the Battle of Athens is part of American history that too few people actually know about.

House Democrats Release Articles of Impeachment Against War Secretary Pete Hegseth Put Forward By Muslim Rep. Yassamin Ansari
https://gellerreport.com/2026/04/house-democrats-release-articles-of-impeachment-against-war-secretary-pete-hegseth-put-forward-by-muslim-rep-yassamin-ansari.html/
The resolution, led by Rep. Yassamin Ansari of Arizona, lists six impeachment articles:
★ Unauthorized war against Iran and reckless endangerment of U.S. service members;
★ Violations of the law of armed conflict and targeting of civilians;
★ Negligence and reckless handling of sensitive military information;
★ Obstruction of congressional oversight;
★ Abuse of power and politicization of the armed forces;
★ Conduct bringing disrepute upon the U.S. and its armed forces.
This one is too stupid to warrant comment. I think everyone understands that impeachment is now a purely political act. Far from being guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors, Secretary Hegseth has offended Democrats by disagreeing with them on policy and by scoring one brilliant success after another, thus making them look bad. This impeachment effort isn’t going anywhere, but its filing is a reminder that if the Democrats take the House in November, as they almost certainly will, they will impeach President Trump and, probably, most members of his cabinet. They are that far gone in hate

Mamdani, Hochul Agree to Tax on Luxury Second Homes in New York City
https://gellerreport.com/2026/04/mamdani-hochul-agree-to-tax-on-luxury-second-homes-in-new-york-city.html/
Hochul is all in on Mamdani’s taxation policies…New York isn’t just losing residents—it’s bleeding the very people who pay the bills. The exodus of wage earners is at record highs, and the old hedge—keeping a pied-à-terre while earning elsewhere—is collapsing. The message is unmistakable: they won’t support a city that treats them like suspects and robs them blind. Close the second home, cut the ties, and move on…Another factor in the proposal’s favor is that it is not being considered as a stand-alone bill; Ms. Hochul intends to include it in the state budget. Under that scenario, the tax proposal will not be voted on separately. It will instead be largely hashed out in closed-door negotiations between the governor and the leaders of the Senate and Assembly. That will make it harder for the tax’s opponents, including the Real Estate Board of New York, a powerful industry group, to lobby effectively against the proposal

Four Democrat-Led States Reject Trump’s No-Tax-on-Tips Policy, Keeping State Taxes on Workers’ Earnings

Polis now requires taxpayers to report their federal deduction so the state can add it back to your tax bill in future years. Read that again. They built a mechanism specifically to claw back your relief. You almost have to admire the audacity.

Apr 19, 1775 –  The Shot Heard Around the World

April 19, 1775…The shot heard round the world…

https://oldnfo.substack.com/p/april-19-1775

0500 Lexington Green-

The British light infantry halted at Vine Brook, about a half mile from Lexington Green, in order to load their muskets. They then continued their advance. When they approached the Green they discovered Captain Parker’s company, about 77 men, formed up and in the open. Someone somewhere fired a shot. The light infantry then rushed onto the green with bayonets, and fired upon the retreating militia. Eight militiamen died on the town common in Lexington. Ten others were wounded. Captain Parker then worked to collect what was left of his company and take them back into the fight later that afternoon.

0700 Concord-

The British entered Concord. Thaddeus Blood, a Private in Captain Nathan Barrett’s Company was among an advanced party that marched about mile east from the center of town along a high ridge that runs along the north side of the road. There they saw the column of British soldiers, 700 strong in a column stretching about a quarter mile, marching toward them. Blood described the scene a follows:

“…we were then formed, the minute (men) on the right, & Capt. Barrett’s (militia company) on the left, & marched in order to the end of Meriam’s hill then so called & saw the British troops a coming down Brooks Hill. The sun was arising & shined on their arms & they made a noble appearance in their red coats & glistening arms…”

0930 Battle of the North Bridge-

When the British first deployed at the North Bridge, they were positioned on the west side of the river. This is the side where the Minute Man Statue now stands.

Hopelessly outnumbered by the advancing militia, the British soldiers pulled back to the east side of the bridge, where the 1836 Obelisk now stands, and hastily organized for defense.

As the colonial column advanced to within about 80 yards of the British position, a succession of three shots rang out from the British side and landed in the river on the right of the advancing minute men. Luther Blanchard, a fifer from Acton cried out that he was wounded. Major John Buttrick of Concord then gave the fatefull order “Fire! For God’s sake, fire!” This was the first time colonial militiamen were ordered to fire on British soldiers.

In all, twelve British soldiers were hit, three of them fatally. Four out of eight officers present were wounded. The rest of the British soldiers broke and fell back in disorder towards Concord. On the colonial side, Captain Isaac Davis and Private Abner Hosmer were killed. Four other militiamen were wounded.

By the time the British staggered back into Boston at 1930, the British casualties were 73 killed, 174 wounded, 26 missing. The Colonial casualties were 49 killed, 41 wounded, 5 missing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ralph Waldo Emerson memorialized that day in the poem Concord Hymn-

By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the world.

The for long since in silence slept;
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;
And Time the ruined bridge has swept;
Down the dark stream which seaward creeps.

On this green bank, by this soft stream,
We set today a votive stone;
That memory may their deed redeem,
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.

Spirit, that made those heroes dare,
To die, and leave their children free,
Bid Time and Nature gently spare
The shaft we raise to them and thee.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani Issues Emergency Order STOPPING Public Celebrations for America’s 250th Anniversary

Twenty five years after 9/11, how the hell did we get here?
Mayor Zohran Mamdani signed an emergency order on April 6 restricting new special event permits in NYC parks from June 11 to July 19. The rule canceled a public July 3 ball drop, prompting outrage over clashing with the semiquincentennial while February’s large Ramadan gatherings in Times Square proceeded with permits. Critics like James Woods and Brian Hegseth called it unpatriotic, but officials cite safety needs amid a 6,000-officer shortfall and $90 million costs.

Iran is Betting on American Strategic Narcissism
https://gellerreport.com/2026/04/iran-is-betting-on-american-strategic-narcissism.html/
As the dust settles over the ruins of IRGC headquarters and the smoke clears from the latest round of precision strikes, a dangerous narrative is taking root in Washington. The narrative suggests that the Islamic Republic is finally broken, cornered by a naval blockade and a maximum pressure campaign that has brought the regime to its knees. However, beneath the surface of the amazing two days of diplomacy and the whispers of a grand deal, a far more cynical game is being played. Tehran is not surrendering; it is gambling. The regime is betting everything on a single, psychological calculation: that the United States is more interested in the optics of a deal than the permanence of a victory.

Mojtaba Khamenei, the new supreme leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, still hasn’t been seen in public since he was named to his exalted new position…“Iran’s navy, is ready to inflict new bitter defeats on enemies.” That may be, but it’s more than a little improbable…The Army, is like the nation’s child, which arises from within the heart of the people’s homes. The Islamic Republic of Iran’s Army is now courageously defending the land, water, and flag that belong to it. Iran’s Army is standing side by side with their comrades from other armed forces, battling the two leading armies of disbelief and Arrogance.”…“And the Islamic Army has exposed those armies’ weakness and humiliation to the world.”…on Saturday, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced: “Following the violation of the ceasefire conditions, the American enemy did not lift the naval blockade of Iranian vessels and ports; therefore, from this afternoon, the Strait of Hormuz is closed until this blockade is lifted.”

The Great Replacement Chronicles: The Sheepening
https://pjmedia.com/benbartee/2026/04/19/the-great-replacement-chronicles-the-sheepening-n4951949
Archiving the “strange death of Europe,” as Douglas Murray put it, and the West more broadly, at the hands of the neoliberal technocracy.
Reaching back in time to the days of Ottoman plunder of Europe and the kidnapping of its women to add to the harem, the military-age single migrant male preference for mating partner has always been for European women. Unfortunately, as has been demonstrated by empirical study funded by the European Union to figure out why they won’t cooperate with the program, the modern native women of Europe aren’t statistically interested in consensual relations with migrant men. The next best thing, therefore, is rape. And, boy, does the migrant love going to town on the natives — like a cock in the henhouse. The cherry on top is that they are virtually immune from prosecution and enjoy rhetorical cover from state media, giving them de facto free rein to ravish at will…Alas, when there are no women or passed-out teenagers on public transportation immediately available to rape, they’ll settle for livestock. Noticing patterns is obviously a thought crime in our Brave New World, yet I can’t help but shake the impression that Third World migrants from a certain region of the world seem to love raping farm animals (in addition to white people). Curiously enough, try as I might, I have not been able to find any denunciation of the migrant rape of farm animal phenomenon in Europe by PETA, the world’s preeminent animal rights organization.

Iran decided to fire bullets yesterday in the Strait of Hormuz — A Total Violation of our Ceasefire Agreement! Many of them were aimed at a French Ship, and a Freighter from the United Kingdom. That wasn’t nice, was it? My Representatives are going to Islamabad, Pakistan — They will be there tomorrow evening, for Negotiations. Iran recently announced that they were closing the Strait, which is strange, because our BLOCKADE has already closed it. They’re helping us without knowing, and they are the ones that lose with the closed passage, $500 Million Dollars a day! The United States loses nothing. In fact, many Ships are headed, right now, to the U.S., Texas, Louisiana, and Alaska, to load up, compliments of the IRGC, always wanting to be “the tough guy!” We’re offering a very fair and reasonable DEAL, and I hope they take it because, if they don’t, the United States is going to knock out every single Power Plant, and every single Bridge, in Iran. NO MORE MR. NICE GUY! They’ll come down fast, they’ll come down easy and, if they don’t take the DEAL, it will be my Honor to do what has to be done, which should have been done to Iran, by other Presidents, for the last 47 years.

https://americanjournaldaily.com/clinton-gop-trump/
Let’s be blunt. This isn’t a serious critique; it’s a masterclass in the unhinged arrogance of the failed political establishment. The idea that a sitting president gets a “dopamine” hit for defending America is so bizarre, you have to wonder what they’re teaching at Columbia these days. It’s a disturbing glimpse into a mindset that sees American power as a sickness to be managed, not a force for good to be wielded.

Fury As Nigerian Migrant Caught Cooking Cat In Public Park Next To Children’s Playground
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/fury-nigerian-migrant-caught-cooking-cat-public-park-next-childrens-playground
A Nigerian immigrant was arrested in Sarzana, Italy after local residents spotted him roasting a freshly killed cat on a makeshift barbecue in a Park—right beside a children’s playground…Nor is it isolated across the West. Just last month we reported on migrants filmed catching and butchering swans and ducks in parks and canals across the UK and Ireland…hese cases drew direct parallels to Springfield, Ohio, where Haitian migrants faced accusations of grabbing ducks by the neck, decapitating them in parks, and taking them home to eat. A city commission meeting heard residents testify to the practice, and a clip later surfaced showing the city manager admitting he had “heard about” the reports of Haitian migrants eating pets—despite frantic media efforts to dismiss the claims as baseless…The pattern is unmistakable. Open-border policies continue to import individuals en mass with entirely incompatible habits that clash with basic Western norms…Public parks are meant for families and children, not open-air barbecues of neighbourhood cats. When authorities have to step in to “return” spaces to the people who actually built and maintain them, it’s a damning indictment of how far unchecked immigration has already gone.

Michigan Democrat Senate Candidate Accused of Racist, Crude Remarks Against VP Vance’s Multiracial Family
https://americanjournaldaily.com/dem-vance-family
There used to be a line in American politics. A gentleman’s agreement, really, that protected the families of political opponents. Children, especially, were considered off-limits, shielded from the mud-slinging by a shared, if unspoken, sense of decency. That code was a load-bearing wall for our civil discourse. But that wall is now rubble. The decay has accelerated into a nosedive, where personal destruction isn’t just a tactic—it’s the entire game plan. When a political movement is bereft of winning ideas, it has no choice but to engage in character assassination. It manufactures outrage, pours gasoline on division, and aims to annihilate not just careers, but marriages and the sacred bond between a parent and child. A recent, stomach-turning tirade from a Democrat candidate proves they’ve found a new basement to bottom out in.
In a recent podcast appearance, Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, who is running as a Democrat in Michigan for a US Senate Seat, claimed that Vice President JD Vance
thinks his “brown kids” are “less American than everyone else,” and urged Second Lady Usha Vance to “get out” of the marriage…“Can you imagine, he’s **got Brown kids, at some point he’s going to have a really awkward conversation with his kids, like, you made your career hating people who are **different.”

Read that again. Let the sheer audacity of it sink in. These are the actual words of Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, a far-left Democrat angling for a U.S. Senate seat in Michigan. In a podcast, El-Sayed went after Vice President JD Vance with a smear that was not only a lie but was dripping with racism. He projected his own twisted, race-obsessed worldview onto a father, claiming a white man couldn’t possibly love his multiracial children as equals.
(It is becoming increasingly clear that the DemocRATS have nothing to offer in the political realm except innuendos, leaks, smears, lies, and, sadly, increasingly, naked violence is becoming much more common at all levels, from the streets, to the political rallies, to the legislatures and Congress jlr)

In the WaPo on Wednesday, he declared that Muslims should not have to assimilate into American society and should not be expected to do so, and that efforts to ban Sharia were not only bigoted and “Islamophobic,” but also futile, as Muslims simply weren’t going to give Sharia up. And he’s right about that part, albeit in the midst of being wildly disingenuous about the nature of Sharia itself…practicing Muslims — despite being repeatedly asked to — can’t disavow ‘sharia’ even if they wanted to. Sharia, roughly translated as Islamic law, includes guidelines on how to pray, fast and otherwise observe what it means to submit to God in daily practice.”…Shadi Hamid, however, as a Georgetown professor and Washington Post columnist, is a cosseted member of the leftist establishment. That establishment has decreed that anyone who is outside that establishment and questions anyone within it is simply a racist “Islamophobe,” and thus safely ignored. Shadi Hamid is thereby freed of any obligation to confront the reality of Sharia or his disingenuousness in this article. He can and will simply wave it away as “bigotry.” And the whole charade will go merrily on.

Adoption of the income tax signified the abandonment of the belief that individuals have inalienable rights granted them by the Creator…The income tax system’s rejection of natural rights is exemplified by withholding that gives government first claim on an individual’s earnings…Withholding was implemented during World War Two as a “temporary” wartime measure…Income taxes, along with the military draft and other types of mandated “service,” are incompatible with a free society and should be opposed by all who value liberty and peace.

https://www.eugyppius.com/p/splc-caught-funding-an-array-of-white
The Southern Poverty Law Center is a sleazy American political advocacy organisation that exists primarily to collect donations from morally overexcited gullible people. They solicit these donations by claiming to combat an array of political evils associated with “white supremacism.” Mainly the SPLC are known for filing lawsuits, publishing otiose classifications of alleged hate groups and promoting things like “anti-bias education.” In its stated aims, the SPLC is not alone. A whole world of political activists and non-governmental organisations – to say nothing of entire governments and intelligence agencies – devote astounding resources to ends like these. The postwar progressive consensus derives political legitimacy from seeming always and everywhere to oppose nefarious, illiberal and anti-egalitarian forces. The problem is that malign hate groups are in extremely short supply. Never has there been such a dearth of them as today.

So, amidst this settled confusion, I wish to help you out today on the birthday of the Earth! In the name of education, below I will give you many of the promised Global Climate Warming Crisis Change disasters!
V
Extended Forecast: Bloodshed
https://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/13/opinion/13kristof.html
Here’s a forecast for a particularly bizarre consequence of climate change: more executions of witches.
As we pump out greenhouse gases, most of the discussion focuses on direct consequences like rising seas or aggravated hurricanes. But the indirect social and political impact in poor countries may be even more far-reaching, including upheavals and civil wars — and even more witches hacked to death with machetes.
In rural Tanzania, murders of elderly women accused of witchcraft are a very common form of homicide. And when Tanzania suffers unusual rainfall either drought or flooding — witch-killings double, according to research by Edward Miguel, an economist at the University of California, Berkeley.
“In bad years, the killings explode,” Professor Miguel said. He believes that if climate change causes more drought years in Tanzania, the result will be more elderly women executed there and in other poor countries that still commonly attack supposed witches.
There is evidence that European witch-burnings in past centuries may also have resulted from climate variations and the resulting crop failures, economic distress and search for scapegoats. Emily Oster, a University of Chicago economist, tracked witchcraft trials and weather in Western Europe between 1520 and 1770 and found a close correlation: colder weather led to more crackdowns on witches.
In particular, Europe’s “little ice age” led to a sharp cooling in the late 1500s, and that corresponds to a renewal in witchcraft trials after a long lull. And there’s also micro-evidence: in one area, a brutally cold May in 1626 led outraged peasants to call for punishment of witches thought responsible. Some scholars have also argued that the Salem witch trials occurred after a particularly cold winter and economically difficult period.
The point is that climate change will have consequences that will be difficult to foresee but will go far beyond weather or economics. There is abundant evidence that economic stress and crop failures as climate scientists anticipate in poor countries can lead to violence and upheavals.
In the United States, for example, some historians have found correlations between recessions or declines in farm values and increased lynchings of blacks.
Paul Collier, an Oxford University expert on global poverty, found that economic stagnation in poor countries leads to a rising risk of civil war. Professor Collier warns that climate change is likely to reduce rainfall in southern Africa enough that corn will no longer be a viable crop there. Since corn is a major form of sustenance in that region, the result may be catastrophic food shortages — and civil conflict.
The area that may be hardest hit of all aside from islands that disappear beneath the waves is the fragile Sahel region south of the Sahara Desert in West Africa. The Sahel is already impoverished and torn by religious and ethnic tensions, and reduced rainfall could push the region into warfare.
“The poorest people on Earth are in the Sahel, barely eking out an existence, and climate change pushes them over the edge,” Professor Miguel said. “It’s totally unfair.”
His research suggests that a drought one year increases by 50 percent the risk that an African country will slip into civil war the next year.
Ethnic conflict in Darfur was exacerbated by drought and competition for water, and some experts see it as the first war caused by climate change. That’s too simplistic, for the crucial factor was simply the ruthlessness of the Sudanese government, but climate change may well have been a contributing factor.
In a forthcoming book, “Economic Gangsters,” Mr. Miguel calls for a new system of emergency aid for countries suffering unusual drought or similar economic shocks. Such temporary aid would aim to reduce the risk of warfare that, once it has begun, is enormously costly to stop and often damages neighboring countries as well.
The greenhouse gases that imperil Africa’s future are spewing from the United States, China and Europe. The people in Bangladesh and Africa emit almost no carbon, yet they are the ones who will bear the greatest risks of climate change. Some experts believe that the damage that the West does to poor countries from carbon emissions exceeds the benefit from aid programs.
All this makes the United States’ reluctance to confront climate change in a serious way like a carbon tax to replace the payroll tax, coupled with global leadership on the issue as unjust as it is unfortunate.
So let’s remember that the stakes with climate change are broader than hotter summers or damaged beach houses. The most dire consequences of our denial and delay may include civil war and even witch-killings among the poorest peoples on earth.

 

The Intermittent Missive – The Start of Summer One

Apr 10

I just…Don’t understand the mentality that can do this…
https://oldnfo.substack.com/p/i-just?The FBI arrested Courtney Williams, 40, of Wagram, North Carolina, yesterday, and a federal grand jury indicted her today in connection with her alleged transmission of classified national defense information to individuals not authorized to receive it, including a journalist (the Journalist). Williams allegedly violated 18 U.S.C. § 793(d).
“Clearance holders accept a solemn obligation to protect the classified information entrusted to them,” said Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg. “That they do so is critical to the security of our Nation. When clearance holders violate that trust, the National Security Division will act swiftly to hold them accountable.”
“We trust our war-fighting individuals to cooperate as a team to protect our military and country,” said U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of North Carolina Ellis Boyle. “We will pursue criminal charges to keep these warriors safe whenever we find leakers exalting their own feelings over the safety of the United States.”
I guess the real irony is the ‘journalist’ is the one who outed her in the article, by name…
She had TS/SCI clearance, and had signed Nondisclosure Agreements (NDAs), which include wording that distribution of ANY of those documents or other things is prosecutable…
So why did she do this for four years??? Was it money? Pissed off at the Army???
WHY???
I cannot fathom anyone doing this, much less to the actual people she worked with every day. I only hope she is convicted and sent to jail for MANY years.

The pair also discussed how they wished for maximum casualties — and their chilling backup plan to toss the explosives in a café if all else failed, according to court documents.

An absolutely unhinged individual believes himself a famous literary wizard. Now, we know he is not really Harry Dresden because the doorbell camera kept working. Joking aside, nothing good would have come by opening the door and facing this idiot.

In Western Civilization, Christian ethics still, in some ways, dominate society. Murder is wrong. Stealing is wrong. Lying is wrong. Iran is dominated by Shiite Muslims who, at heart, embrace Taqiyya, or religious dissimulation…Taqiyya, in practice, means lying to the infidel. The Hadith, or traditions of the prophet, says “war is deceit,” and commanders may use lies to advance their cause. The Iranian regime outmaneuvered the Obama administration with peace talks. To this day, Democrats insist Iran was not building a nuclear weapon, but Iran was clearly building a nuclear weapon. The regime lies to the West.

PURGING THE “NUT JOBS”: Trump Blasts Tucker, Megyn, Candace, Alex Jones “Low IQ” Losers
https://gellerreport.com/2026/04/purging-thenut-jobstucker-megyn-candace-alex-jones.html
President Trump stepped up his long-overdue purge, crushing the faction tearing the party apart. And the president—no surprise—did not mince words. I know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon — Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs…. These so-called “pundits” are LOSERS, and they always will be! Now Fake News CNN, The Failing New York Times, and all of the other Radical Left “News” Organizations, are “hailing” them, and giving them “positive” press for the first time in their lives. They’re not “MAGA,” they’re losers, just trying to latch on to MAGA. As President, I could get them on my side anytime I want to, but when they call, I don’t return their calls because I’m too busy on World and Country Affairs and, after a few times, they go “nasty,” just like Marjorie “Traitor” Brown, but I no longer care about that stuff, I only care about doing right for our Country. MAGA is about WINNING and STRENGTH in not allowing Iran to have Nuclear Weapons. MAGA is about MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and these people have no idea how to do that, BUT I DO, because THE UNITED STATES IS NOW THE “HOTTEST” COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!” President DONALD J.

Really, What’s Wrong with Islam? Nothing but a Few ‘Extremists,’ Right?
https://pjmedia.com/robert-spencer/2026/04/11/really-whats-wrong-with-islam-nothing-but-a-few-extremists-right-n4951679
Islam can and does make terrorists out of individuals and parasites out of societies. It is virtually inconceivable in the current environment that these facts could become part of our national discussion, but that doesn’t make them any less true, and we ignore them to our detriment…The way in which Islam is bad for individuals is clear enough. Contrary to the still-prevalent popular assumption, the Qur’an really does contain numerous exhortations to violence against unbelievers, and all too many Muslims today regard those passages with extreme seriousness. A steady stream of converts to Islam end up being violent jihadis, not because they misunderstand their newfound faith, but because they read their new holy book and take its commands to heart. The worst aspect of this, aside from the ever-growing body count, is the fact that when these jihadis commit murder in the name of Islam, they think they’re performing a righteous act.

The Kremlin’s Shadow War on Undersea Cables
https://www.threatjournal.com/archive/tj04112026.html
UK Defense Secretary John Healey disclosed a significant Russian underwater reconnaissance and possible sabotage operation in the North Atlantic, north of the United Kingdom, which prompted a sustained allied response…Defense and intelligence professionals have long warned of GUGI’s unique mandate and equipment for enabling the particularly insidious hybrid tactic of the peacetime placement of dormant sabotage devices for wartime activation. The two specialist vessels in this situation are reportedly capable of deploying miniature unmanned underwater vehicles or remotely operated systems that can affix acoustic sensors, fibre-optic tapping pods, small shaped charges, or cutting devices directly onto or adjacent to pipelines and data cables. Once positioned, such “sleeping” assets could remain undetected on the seabed for months or years, activated remotely or by preset timers when Moscow chooses to degrade NATO’s transatlantic lifelines.

The Dignidad Act is a complete betrayal of Republican voters

The proposed legislation is nothing more than thinly veiled amnesty for tens of millions of illegal aliens…It’s shaping up to be a classic standoff between monied special interests and the liberal Republicans they sponsor versus everyday Americans…Representatives Maria Salazar (R-Fla.) and Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) have started what hopefully will be a short but politically violent war by once again raising the specter of mass amnesty for illegal aliens via their Spanish-language-titled Dignidad Act…so much like every other failed Republican-led amnesty push, their chief sales pitch has been that the Dignidad Act is not amnesty, despite the plain language offering amnesty to more than ten million illegal aliens, by conservative estimates.

Congress Declares the Border Was Invaded, Then Moves to Legalize the Invaders
https://texianpartisan.com/news/texasnews/congress-declares-the-border-was-invaded-then-moves-to-legalize-the-invaders/
What this means: This isn’t incompetence. It’s betrayal. The same people who declared an invasion now want to legalize it. As long as Texas remains in this union, our border security depends on politicians who say one thing in January and sign the opposite in April…San Jacinto proved Texas could win its independence. The federal government is proving every day why we need to win it again.

San Jacinto Day is eleven days out. In 1836, Sam Houston’s army won Texas independence in less than 18 minutes. Today, we’re fighting a different battle—against a federal government that acknowledges the invasion at our border and then rewards the invaders.

Congress Admits the Invasion, Then Offers Amnesty
In January 2025, every Republican member of the Texas congressional delegation signed a resolution formally declaring the southern border had been invaded. Article I, Section 10 of the Constitution. An invasion. Their word.
Three months later, one of those same signers—Rep. Monica De La Cruz—put her name on the DIGNIDAD Act, a bill that would shield millions of the people who crossed that border from deportation. The bill now has 39 cosponsors: 20 Republicans, 19 Democrats.
Rep. Brandon Gill called it what it is: “mass amnesty.” Senator Mike Lee was more blunt: “When you have to say ‘it’s not amnesty,’ it’s usually amnesty.” The bill’s author, Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar, already admitted she hopes future Congresses will create a citizenship pathway for those who get legal status under it. That’s the game. Always has been.
What this means: This isn’t incompetence. It’s betrayal. The same people who declared an invasion now want to legalize it. As long as Texas remains in this union, our border security depends on politicians who say one thing in January and sign the opposite in April.

Eleven Days to San Jacinto
On April 21, 1836, Sam Houston’s army caught Santa Anna at San Jacinto. The battle lasted less than 18 minutes. Complete victory. Texas independence secured.
Houston didn’t rush. He waited until his enemy was exactly where he needed them to be. Then he struck—swift and decisive. That’s the lesson. Patience isn’t weakness. It’s strategy.

We’ve been at this for over 25 years. Building. Organizing. Waiting for the moment when Texans are ready to act. That moment is closer than it’s ever been. When you see federal politicians declare an invasion and then move to reward it, you’re watching the system prove our case for us.

What this means: The men at San Jacinto delivered independence and set the example we follow today. They didn’t ask permission. They acted.

One Year Ago: The Legislature Memo That Changed Everything. This time last year, a memo surfaced on the floor of the Texas House that shattered years of excuses. It confirmed what we’d always known: the Texas Legislature absolutely has the power to authorize a referendum on TEXIT. For over a decade, elected officials told us their hands were tied—that they couldn’t put independence to a vote unless it was a constitutional amendment. The memo proved they were either lying or didn’t understand their own authority. It stated plainly that “the legislature may pass legislation mandating a referendum on a particular topic.”

That memo matters because it took the excuse away. Now when a legislator says they can’t give Texans a vote on independence, you know exactly what you’re dealing with. What this means: The legal pathway exists. The only thing standing between Texans and a vote on independence is political will—and we’re building that every day.

Read the full story: Uncovered Memo Reveals Referendum Powers Legislature Has Denied TEXIT Supporters
https://texianpartisan.com/news/texit-updates/uncovered-memo-reveals-referendum-powers-legislature-has-denied-texit-supporters/

Houston waited for the right moment and then moved with decisive force. We’re building that force right now—one Texan at a time. Add your name to the fight.

San Jacinto proved Texas could win its independence. The federal government is proving every day why we need to win it again.
April 21st. Remember what’s possible when Texans decide they’ve had enough.

Vice President JD Vance attempted to negotiate with the Iranians in Islamabad, Pakistan. They negotiated for 21 hours, but no agreement was reached on Iran’s uranium enrichment and nuclear weapons ambitions. This suggests that the next phase of Operation Epic Fury could happen soon, which would involve a devastating wave of airstrikes more intense than any previously carried out. There is another card President Trump could play. The US Navy has entered the Strait of Hormuz, where it has begun mine-sweeping operations. The Iranians warned they couldn’t fully open the waterway because they forgot where they placed the mines, or so they say. Not what you want to hear from a nation that desires nuclear weapons.

https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/04/12/californias-nutria-nightmare-someone-really-likes-these-20-pound-rats-n2201217
California sure seems to have a plethora of problems these days. The once-Golden state is broke. The state is overseen by one of the least capable governors in the 50 states. They have among the highest fuel prices, the highest taxes, and the highest cost of living in the country. Their population is fleeing; all the productive members, anyway. You can’t even rent a U-Haul to go from Los Angeles to Dallas right now; they’re all already in Dallas, taken there by families fleeing for greener pastures. And then, there’s the huge influx of illegal immigrants that the state has suffered over the last few years. Now there’s a new wave of immigrants, and they are something different: An invasion of 20-pound aquatic rodents…“Someone may have thought they could be an effective natural way to manage aquatic vegetation on their private property,” Buchalski added. “Also, some people just really like nutria… Or it could have been malicious in hopes that they would cause environmental damage.

JUSTICE TWISTED: Bronx Judge Crushes Cop For Doing His Job, Coddles Criminals

Duran threw a bystander’s picnic cooler at fleeing crack cocaine suspect Eric Duprey, 30, knocking him off his motorized scooter into a parked car where he died from head trauma. Justice Guy Mitchell sentenced the 13-year NYPD veteran to three to nine years for second-degree manslaughter—the first on-duty death imprisonment for an officer in over 20 years—rejecting claims of protecting fellow detective. Law enforcement leaders like Sergeants Benevolent Association President Vincent Vallelong called it ‘the darkest day’ for policing…

It went as well as you imagine – “Hope is not a strategy”
https://miguelgg.substack.com/p/it-went-as-well-as-you-imagine
San Francisco city leaders joined community members on the front steps of City Hall on Thursday to announce a 24-hour violence ceasefire beginning Friday. The event was promoted as a citywide, anti-gun and anti-violence effort under the theme “Silence Is Violence” and 24 hours of nonviolence. The focus is not only on reducing shootings and other violent incidents but also on raising awareness about possible solutions.
(ta dump – tish)
And here were the results: And just to keep it short, I selected gun calls since that was the original idea/wishful thinking of the community leaders…Yeah, it did not go as planned. Maybe they need more defunding the police and more “restorative justice’ and cashless bail to reduce crime of violence. But they have to wish it harder so it works this time. </end sarcasm>

They keep using that word. – Caught this from a Divemedic’s post.
https://miguelgg.substack.com/p/they-keep-using-that-word
They truly never experienced violence, only a politically watered down version of having their feelings hurt. Physical pain is mostly confined at the momentary sensation when they get a piercing or getting an “anarchy” tattoo. But that searing pain that comes from blunt objects impacting on any part of the fleshy parts of the body, or the violent slicing/perforation of skin and muscle by a sharp blade (or no to sharp) is alien to people who at most have gone to see the nurse because they got a paper cut. They do not understand the shock, numbness and then excruciating pain of being shot and your internal organs re-arranged by a projectile nor the amount of blood seeping out and taking what is left of their life with it. And certainly do not even have an inkling on the amount of pain that a fellow human can inflict on them, piecemeal, methodically and with gusto at their faces suddenly realizing how fucking wrong they were. And it is getting to the point one (or a lot) of them are going to make this mistake if issuing their version of violence and I am to the point of saying “Yes, please. Go right ahead. The first one is free.”

“I would like very much to ensure — and in some cases I have — that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy.” – Col. Jeff Cooper

ESTABLISHMENT PANIC: Vindicated Bat Ye’or Targeted by New York Times Judith Miller Hit Piece
https://gellerreport.com/2026/04/establishment-panic-vindicated-bat-yeor-targeted-by-new-york-times-judith-miller-hit-piece.html
Bat Ye’or is the OG, the original – posers and intellectual thieves like Daniel Pipes have long cribbed her work and sought to marginalize her in order to steal the mantle and pass off trimmed, second-hand ideas as their own. Judith Miller’s lengthy Tablet piece, attempts to discredit Bat Ye’or just as her warnings about Islamic influence and mass migration in Europe proved horribly right. While Miller pretends to offer faint praise, she ultimately portrays Bat Ye’or as fringe by amplifying critics and dismissing her “Eurabia” thesis as conspiracy. The piece frames this as a broader tactic: when a dissident thinker threatens dominant narratives, legacy media moves in for the kill – to smear, defame and undermine them rather than engage/debate on the merits and the facts.

In February 2025, the public prosecutor’s office launched an ex officio investigation into Niko over statements in a video from 2024 … The Protestant newspaper Idea was the first to report on the investigation against Niko. Apollo News has now learned that the second YouTuber, Tino, is also under investigation for the same video …

From “The Democrat Peoples Democratic State of” Massachusetts – Dems Advance Bill To Limit How Far You Can Drive In Your Own Car
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/massachusetts-dems-advance-bill-limit-how-far-you-can-drive-your-own-car
Massachusetts lawmakers are barreling ahead with a bill that would force the state to slash the total miles residents drive, all under the banner of cutting greenhouse gas emissions…The proposal, Senate Bill S.2246, doesn’t slap a hard cap on your daily commute… yet – but it orders the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) to set binding goals for reducing statewide vehicle miles traveled (VMT). It also creates a new government council tasked with pushing people onto public transit whether they like it or not…Need to visit family across town or haul supplies for a business? Too bad. The goal is fewer cars, fewer miles, and more dependence on government-run transit that’s already unreliable and crime-ridden in blue cities.
Europe is already testing the waters with energy rationing talk amid ongoing crises. Officials have floated work-from-home mandates, driving restrictions, and even limits on flying or heating homes to meet net-zero targets.

WMD: Israel Takes Out Chemical Weapon Factory Making Fentanyl Bombs in Iran
https://gellerreport.com/2026/04/wmd-israel-takes-out-chemical-weapon-factory-making-fentanyl-bombs-in-iran.html/
A “fentanyl bomb” refers to the classification of illicit, synthetic fentanyl as a chemical weapon or Weapon of Mass Destruction (WMD), rather than just a traditional illegal drug. ★ Extreme Lethality: Just two milligrams of fentanyl—equivalent to 10–15 grains of table salt—can be a lethal dose for a human. ★ “Weaponized” Potential: The designation stems from the belief that organized criminal networks (cartels) are using fentanyl in ways “closer to a chemical weapon than a narcotic,” creating risks for large-scale terrorism. ★ Scale of Death: With hundreds of thousands of deaths attributed to fentanyl overdoses, it kills more Americans than traditional weapons.
(Imagine – a bomb with 2000 pounds or MORE of pure ultra-fine powdered fentanyl exploded over any major city in the USA would make that city, and areas downwind, uninhabitable for years until the weather and decontamination efforts removed MOST of the fentanyl, there would always be fentanyl lurking in hidden spaces, because you can’t get it all – EVER … The immediate death toll would be in the 10s of thousands if not millions by immediate fentanyl contamination, and 10s of thousands by later by stupid people doing stupid things in buildings, vehicles, anything that was open to the air when the bomb detonated – jlr)

Uglification As Control: The Assault on Beauty
https://pjmedia.com/jamie-wilson/2026/04/13/uglification-as-control-the-assault-on-beauty-n4951754
…The American founding vision understood this instinctively. The Constitution and the classical liberal order it embodies were designed to safeguard the earned pursuit of wealth, power, and beauty. Not equal outcomes, but equal rules under which individuals can strive, create, and enjoy free of centralized gatherers and sharers warping the panels for control. Property rights protect wealth. Fragmented, checked power protects agency. Free expression and the right to pursue happiness protect the cultivation of beauty in all its manifestations — personal, artistic, architectural — without ideological veto.

Donald Trump Pulls The Wabbit Season Trick On the Iranian Regime

the iranian ink blot – assessing the geopolitics
https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/the-iranian-ink-blot
Iran seems to have become the great global ink blot, a world-spanning Rorschach test at once of surpassing complexity, scope, and divisiveness. The responses thereto come from 100 angles, each likely revealing as much about the speaker as about the events themselves and, to be honest, an awful lot of what is being said is just plain bunk, made-up facts, faulty calculations, emotive slop, and outright rage-baited lunacy crashing into an already toxic political environment governed by rank tribalism. meanwhile, like it or lump it, a new world order rooted not in soft power deference (some would say capitulation) but in the hard power exigencies of what was once called the “great game” among great powers is being forged. There are lots of ways to feel about that, and I suspect that a great deal of what is making this particular bone so irreconcilably contentious is that it’s one of those situations where folks on many sides have a point, and depending upon how one looks at it and which assumptions one embeds, you can get radically different answers.

the iranian inkblot part 2 – some additional perspectives
https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/the-iranian-inkblot-part-2
I’m honestly not sure I’ve ever seen a disconnect like the Iran War in terms of the way so many people are looking at the same things and coming to such radically different conclusions, and, to be brutally honest, in many cases, flat out abandoning sense, core principles, and even basic discernment in their pursuit of wild, questionable conclusions.
It feels like derangement.
It’s an environment of bias, confirmation, and otherwise, crashing into outright propaganda and egged on by myopia and hyperfixation that is, frankly, missing huge parts of what is going on as everyone says “this is simple and my singular hobby horse explains it all.” But as i said in my last piece on this: now some of what is going on is clearly a one-time world order centered around the soft power of ideas like “international law” and “the UN” being shoved aside for a return to something more akin to the “great game” of the bad old days……………..

Virginia Gun Sales Surge as Background Checks Nearly Double Ahead of Proposed Assault Weapons Ban
https://americanjournaldaily.com/woke-gov-ban-residents/
…there’s something about the American spirit the ruling class just doesn’t get. They never have…a quiet resolve that values liberty over their empty promises of security, and principle over the comfort of compliance. This spirit doesn’t go looking for a fight, but when the self-appointed elites try to dictate the terms of our freedom, it always answers back. It is the inheritance of a nation born from defiance. The patriots across the Old Dominion deserve a round of applause. They aren’t just buying firearms; they are making a statement. Faced with a deliberate assault on their constitutional rights, they are responding with an overwhelming, and frankly beautiful, act of defiance. The FBI tracked an astonishing 79,846 background checks in Virginia in March. That’s a staggering jump from the 47,069 checks in the same month just a year ago. When the fundamental rights of a people are threatened by overzealous legislators, the response is often predictable…It is a peaceful and potent referendum on government overreach. A referendum conducted not in the marble halls of power, but on the main streets of America. Right now, in Virginia, that message is being sent loud and clear.

Trump Vows to Hunt Down, Jail Leaker Who Endangered Missing F-15 Pilot by Tipping Off Iran

Speaking in the White House briefing room on Monday, a clearly perturbed Commander in Chief declared that the media’s disclosure tipped off Tehran and directly endangered the airman’s life. Not to mention the lives of hundreds of troops searching for the missing crew member. “We’re looking very hard to find that leaker,” he said. “They basically said that we have one, and there’s somebody missing. Well, [Iran] didn’t know there was somebody missing until this leaker gave the information.”The President indicated he would pressure the media outlet that published the story to reveal their sources. “We think we’ll be able to find it out,” Trump continued. “Because we’re going to go to the media company that released it, and we’re going to say, ‘National security. Give it up or go to jail.’”

I drive a lot around Nashville and not a day goes by that I cuss quietly to some simple moron crossing the street without looking. The Bipedal Morons come in two flavors: The “Nose-in-Phone” dumbass and the “I am Royalty” ass-wipe. The first one is walking around while checking the latest K-Pop video or make-up tips ignoring that several thousands pounds of steel and plastic are about to intercept his or her ass. The second type is more infuriating as they simply swear that you will stop because it is their legal and sacred right to play chicken with a moving vehicle. And have the attitude to demonstrate it by crossing the street at a slow museum-watching pace and the smug face that goes with it. I would love to say that older generations are better at this, but I would be wrong. The B.S. seems to apply to all that can walk faster, but simply do not give a flock of seagulls.

https://oldnfo.substack.com/p/this-125
DHS Secretary Mullin raises the possibility of pulling CBP and customs officers from airports in large sanctuary cities, citing lack of cooperation with the federal government and funding refusals. International arrivals would be unable to clear customs at those airports. “It’s something we’re looking at,”…So, Boston, Philly, NYC, Chicago, Seattle, SFO, LA, and, if Spanburger has her way, Dulles could lose their customs services. Which would severely impact the airlines as they would have to find somewhere else to clear international travellers. Can you say Florida and Texas???

Texas Restricts Services for Illegal Immigrants, Tightening Access to Licenses and In-State Tuition
https://americanjournaldaily.com/texas-illegals-welfare/
Let’s start with a simple question: what is the point of a government if it doesn’t serve its own people? For decades, that question has gone unanswered as Americans watch their leaders bend over backward for everyone but them. We see our public services strained, our schools overwhelmed, and the basic rule of law treated as an inconvenient suggestion. It’s madness. This frustration has been simmering for years as a silent majority wonders why their tax dollars are being used to incentivize the very problems weakening our country. This isn’t about a lack of compassion; it’s a demand for basic fairness. When a government stops prioritizing its own citizens, it shatters that sacred trust. Thankfully, one state has decided to pick up the pieces with bold, unapologetic action.
“Benefits, licenses, and taxpayer-funded services should not be used to incentivize unlawful presence at the expense of hardworking Texans. These steps ensure compliance with federal law, protect the integrity of our systems, and prioritize jobs and resources for legal residents and citizens.”
That statement, from Governor Greg Abbott’s office, is the sound of sanity making a comeback.
Key Takeaways:
⋆ Texas is rightfully prioritizing its own citizens by cutting off taxpayer-funded benefits for illegal immigrants.
⋆ Strong governors must act decisively when the federal government fails to secure the nation’s border.
⋆ Enforcing immigration law is not cruel; it is the essential foundation of a fair and orderly society.
⋆ Ending these incentives restores fiscal sanity and respects the hardworking Americans who fund our government.

Presidential-level hypocrisy came courtesy of Chicago’s costly eyesore as the sanctuary city’s newest attraction included a telling caveat regarding its grand opening… “We all know that Obama has a big, beautiful presidential library coming — make your own opinions — but when you look at the requirements for the opening of that library, it says, ‘Promotion open only to U.S. citizens, or lawful permanent U.S. residents who are legal residents of the 50 United States …’”

“Why do we have stricter standards for the Obama library than for voting?” she asked her guest, Texas Rep. Brandon Gill (R)…“Well, because Democrats would like to allow non-citizens to vote in American elections,” he began. “That’s a core part of their long-term political strategy is flooding the country with illegal aliens, trying to give them amnesty so they can vote for Democrats, and, in the meantime, having open election systems in trying to get these illegals to vote for Democrats as much as they possibly can.” “Remember, it only takes a few fraudulent votes in key swing states and key swing districts to swing even a presidential election.

Or if fewer black students are accepted into college versus Asian students, it must again be because of racial discrimination.

FBI Arrests Ex-SOCOM Employee Over Leak to Media 48 Hours After Trump Said Justice Was Coming for Leakers – DEVELOPING
https://www.westernjournal.com/breaking-fbi-arrests-ex-socom-employee-leak-media-48-hours-trump-said-justice-coming-leakers-developing/
The announcement came just 48 hours after President Donald Trump promised that identifying a leaker in another recent case involving the Air Force pilot rescue operation in Iran over Easter weekend would be a top priority. Patel posted on social media, “FBI and our partners have arrested a former SOCOM employee, who supported our top-level military warfighters, for allegedly transmitting classified information to a member of the media.”

Christopher Hitchins Barely Touched Upon Islam’s Predations
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/03/christian_hitchins_barely_touched_upon_islam_s_predations.html
In a viral clip,(video – 00:00:57 – https://twitter.com/i/status/2035374905298980987) Hitchens spoke about the Muslims’ centuries-long slave trade against Europeans and Americans. He understated the severity of the problem. Anyone with a knowledge of history knows that Islam, born in seventh-century Arabia, has always been at war with Western civilization. Indeed, it has been the single most prolific conquering and colonizing force in history, much of it being Christian lands. And all of this has been driven by religious imperatives and duties written into the Koran. That is reality, not “Islamophobia,” a word the left recently invented to protect their radical Islamist allies in the West. The threat of destruction from radical Islamists, as we term them today, has always been real and as imminent as their abilities allowed. Were it not for a few brave Christians who blocked the Muslim invasions, Western civilization would have been overrun and extinguished centuries ago. Their names ring down through history.
⋆ In 732, Charles Martel stopped a Muslim invasion of Western Europe at the Battle of Tours.
⋆ In 1091, Roger I reconquered Sicily after 250 years of Muslim occupation.
⋆ In 1492, Ferdinand and Isabella reconquered Spain and Portugal after 700 years of Muslim occupation.
⋆ In 1571, Don John won the naval Battle of Lepanto, destroying an Ottoman fleet bent on conquering Christian lands.
⋆ In 1683, John Sobieski crushed the Ottoman army before the Gates of Vienna, halting their invasion of southern Europe.

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/04/it_s_high_time_that_america_be_selective_about_who_can_become_an_american_citizen.html
The Fourteenth Amendment is clearly directed toward ensuring that slaves born in America, whose forebears were of African origin, would be considered American citizens after the Civil War. We know this to be a fact because many American Indians were also born on American soil, though they were not considered American citizens when the Fourteenth Amendment was ratified.

Schrödinger’s Ceasefire
https://www.eugyppius.com/p/schrodingers-ceasefire
Last night did not quite usher in the feared Energy Apocalypse. At the eleventh hour, the United States and Iran agreed to a Pakistan-mediated ceasefire. This ceasefire was said to comprise an immediate two-week pause in hostilities and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz pending peace negotiations between Iran and the United States. Unfortunately it is impossible to write anything about this ceasefire because almost everything one might say about it is disputed and it appears to be crumbling as I type.

Iran Is Already Blatantly Violating the Ceasefire, Large Missile Barrages Reported
https://redstate.com/bonchie/2026/04/08/new-iran-is-already-blantantly-violating-the-ceasefire-n2201075
…Israel faced multiple missile barrages in the hours following, despite being confirmed as part of the deal. Various Gulf nations also found themselves under attack, with Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain all reporting missile and drone strikes on their territory from Iran…while you could excuse a few stray missiles and drones in the immediate aftermath of the announced ceasefire, at some point, a ceasefire has to actually mean something. I think that point was well before the UAE came under yet another barrage today. Yes, it takes time to get the word out to underlings, but it doesn’t take half a day…The Iranians aren’t going to suddenly become benevolent business partners in the Middle East, and right now, they think they’ve just won a major victory.

New SNAP Benefits Rules in Texas
via The Texas Flyover – https://thetexasflyover.com/wednesday-april-1-2026
Approximately 3.3 million Texans enrolled in the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) can no longer purchase candy or sweetened drinks using their benefits.  The new restrictions, effective today, have been implemented in response to a state law passed last year and a waiver approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Texas is one of 22 states that have received a waiver to restrict the use of SNAP benefits.  “Texas is leading the way in aligning SNAP benefits with healthier food options,” Gov. Greg Abbott said last month. The new rules prohibit using benefits for candy bars, gum, and drinks that contain 5 grams or more of added sugar, or any amount of artificial sweetener.  Not everyone agrees with the changes. Lorna Ramage, deputy director of communications for the advocacy group Every Texan, said, “We worry that these changes will lead to more Texas families going hungry, all while adding an unsustainable bureaucratic burden on Texas’ small businesses.”
***(OH, the HORROR of it all! – no more energy drinks, no more Cokes et al., no more candy, YOU MUST eat healthier foods, how deaconian to force healthier choices on people receiving PUBLIC funds for food, and most of them on PUBLICLY funded health care –  jlr)

Woman Tries Getting Birth Certificate, SS Card, and Marriage License to See if Dems Are Honest – Says She Caught Them Lying Through Their Teeth
https://www.westernjournal.com/woman-tries-getting-birth-certificate-ss-card-marriage-license-see-dems-honest-says-caught-lying-teeth
One of the editors over at conservative website Twitchy decided to check just how easy it was for her to get the documents in question. And while your mileage may vary and we don’t have any proof aside from her X post last week, this is generally how it’s going to go for most people.  First, birth certificate: “Contacted the health department of the county where I was born. They OVERNIGHTED a certified copy to me the next day – total cost, $14.”  Fine, but what about a Social Security card? “Contacted Social Security on their site. They asked if I was sure I needed the card, since I ‘won’t likely be asked for it.’ I went ahead and got it – took five business days to arrive – total cost, $0.”  But she’s married — and we’ve been told that if women have changed their name, they’re doomed, and “The Handmaid’s Tale” is really on!  “Went to the ‘vital docs’ site of the county where we were hitched. Filled everything out online, arrived in three days – total cost, $5.” Oh. “It cost less than $20 to obtain all three certified/legal documents, and it took less than five business days to receive them”

Democrats’ HIT LIST: Subpoena Plans If They Win House
https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/democrats-hit-list-subpoena-plans-if-they-win-house.html
This “political” party, and I use the term loosely, exists to destroy. They have no appetite or desire to better the country, help the American worker, or defend the homeland. They exist to destroy those who do.  A “party” in name only, bereft of purpose beyond sabotage, indifferent to the country’s welfare, the worker’s prosperity, or the nation’s defense—its defining mission is to cripple and destroy those who still pursue them.
Look for the subpoena list to include: Law firms that signed deals with President Trump. ♦ Media giants that settled. ♦ Donors to the White House ballroom. ♦ Top execs who negotiated to give the government a stake in their companies. ♦ Profit-enablers of Trump relatives or families of Cabinet members.

Judge Rules Trump Can’t Build Ballroom, Even with Private Donations, Without Outside Approval
U.S. District Judge Richard Leon ruled Tuesday that President Donald Trump must stop construction of his new White House ballroom…federal judge held that Trump lacks the authority to go forward with the $400 million project using private funds without Congressional approval. “The President of the United States is the steward of the White House for future generations of First Families. He is not, however, the owner!” Leon, a George W. Bush appointee, wrote in a 35-page ruling. He said that “no statute comes close to giving the President the authority he claims to have.”…was requested by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the nonprofit organization that sued Trump to stop the ballroom construction…the plaintiff,  National Trust for Historic Preservation, as a “Radical Left Group of Lunatics whose funding was stopped by Congress in 2005.”

It does not enforce immigration law within Canada and is not even authorized to carry out independent investigations in the country, according to the very article shared by Ainslie.

The French Straw Just Broke NATO’s Back
https://redstate.com/bonchie/2026/03/31/the-french-straw-just-broke-natos-back-n2200809
Don’t misunderstand me. I’m not suggesting NATO requires its European members to join the conflict in full force. But I am suggesting they shouldn’t act like spoiled brats, closing their airspace and fretting over the use of their bases for a bombing campaign against an Islamic terrorist regime. If we can’t count on them for something that costs them essentially nothing, we won’t be able to count on them when the stakes are higher….There is no point in being in such a one-sided alliance. America pays for the lion’s share of NATO’s defense spending, all while European nations refuse to reciprocate in any real way. We don’t need France’s support if Mexico decides to invade Texas, but France needs us if Russia marches through Ukraine and into the rest of Eastern Europe.

The war on dogs
https://www.collapselife.com/p/the-war-on-dogs
A BBC lifestyle piece about whether Brits are too dog-friendly belies a bigger question: how far does a majority ‘accommodate’ before its sway stops being the default?…
On the surface, this seemingly innocent story follows a sad and now familiar pattern: ♦ Take a widely accepted norm. ♦ Introduce a small group that struggles with it. ♦ Frame that struggle as exclusion (or oppression?) ♦ Quietly shift the burden back onto the majority.
A country full of dog owners is asked, gently at first, to rethink where dogs belong. Then, soon after, it’s no longer about dogs. It’s about whose norms define the space, and who quietly has to adjust.

I suspect that they are not only not capable of forming normal personalities now, but also that they’re not capable of understanding what that is, or that there is anything unusual about them.

Iran’s Real Motivation
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/04/iran_s_real_motivation.html
…the attacks on the Middle Eastern Arab countries are at least in part because that fanatical Iranian regime wishes to portray to the Islamic world that the Sunnis are less devoted to Allah than the Shi’ite branch of Islam with which Iranian theology and leadership is identified…The Shi’ite fanatics who rule Iran and some other Islamic enclaves have since the 7th century been intent to prove that the Shi’ites are the true heirs of Mohamed’s teaching and should be recognized by all Islamic believers. They have been aggressively insisting that their minority status within Islam since the 7th century is unwarranted. All of the centuries since Mohamed’s death, they are obsessed with proving that Ali, a nephew of Mohamed, was the true heir to leadership of the faith and should be recognized by Islam as such. Such is the fanatical mindset that it continues to obsess over a simple point like that for 14 centuries.

Mexico banned mail-in voting in 1992 due to fraud. Belgium banned mail-in voting in 2018 due to fraud. Sweden does not permit mail-in voting. Italy does not permit mail-in voting. Ukraine does not permit mail-in voting. For well over a decade, the Democrat party of treason acted with impunity and absolute disregard for the American people and our national interest.

The order, as reported by RedState’s Ward Clark earlier this week, requires federal agencies to verify U.S. citizenship using Social Security and DHS data, directs the Postal Service to send absentee ballots only to voters on approved state lists, and uses unique barcodes for tracking…The groups in the lawsuit contend that Trump is trying to “rewrite election rules for his own perceived partisan advantage.”… “The right to vote in Federal elections is reserved exclusively for citizens of the United States under the Constitution and Federal law.”…”Unlike the Biden Administration, which pursued its political agenda instead of fair elections, President Trump is putting the American people back in charge,”

He is not, however, the owner!” Leon, a George W. Bush appointee, wrote in a 35-page ruling. He said that “no statute comes close to giving the President the authority he claims to have.”

U.S. Judge Blocks Trump Administration from Terminating Parole Status for 900,000 Biden-Era Migrants

A US district court judge Allison Burroughs has ruled that the Trump administration unlawfully sent mass emails to immigrants who came to the US via the CBP One app that it was time for them to “leave the United States.”…“The regulations do not give the agency unfettered discretion to terminate parole,” Burroughs claimed in the decision. “When Defendants terminated the impacted noncitizens’ parole without observing the process mandated by statute and by their own regulations, they took action that was ‘not in accordance with law.’”…Let that sink in for a moment. A single judge in Boston, Allison Burroughs, has decided she knows better than the President of the United States and the millions of Americans who elected him. This isn’t just “judicial overreach”; it’s a hijacking of our democracy in slow motion, designed to stop the America First agenda in its tracks.

About 260,000 of those babies would not have qualified for birthright citizenship if Trump’s executive order had already been in effect. This includes: About 245,000 babies born to mothers who were unauthorized immigrants and fathers who were not citizens or lawful permanent residents.  About 15,000 babies were born to mothers who had legal temporary status and fathers who were not citizens or lawful permanent residents

Section 1 of the 14th Amendment has been open to discussion for many years, HERE. Much of the issue revolves around the words “subject to the jurisdiction thereof“ and what that really means.
IMHO, birth tourists and illegals do not meet the requirement of being subject to the jurisdiction, since they are not American, and are not in the process of being naturalized.

Trump Administration Pushes for Companies to Bring Call Centers Back to America

… the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) announced that it had “voted to launch a new proceeding looking into the use of offshore call centers.” The agency explained that bringing call centers back to the United States would be beneficial for several reasons.  First, moving call centers overseas takes jobs away from Americans and causes “language, communication, and other barriers that make it difficult, if not impossible, for consumers to get a satisfactory resolution to their problem.” Offshore call centers also create national security issues as “bad actors working inside foreign call centers have been known to illicitly access customer data or information to advance criminal endeavors.”  As a result of these issues, the FCC is seeking comments on “actions that would encourage and facilitate the onshoring of call centers,” on “steps the FCC can take to improve the customer service and security of communications between an American and any call center that remains abroad,” and on “steps we can take to address illegal robocall scams that originate inside foreign call centers.”

We’ve seen a few active shooter scenarios pan out, for example, and one literal terrorist attack at Fort Hood, all despite the gun-free designation…Hegseth’s announcement, the military personnel we trust with heavy weapons and explosives might be able to carry a firearm on their own person just in case something happens, as well as use it in conjunction with a carry permit for the state they’re stationed in so they can be safe leaving base and running some errands or whatever.  The idea of not trusting our men and women in uniform is hardly new. It’s just disgusting that they’re trying to frame this as concern for them, rather than their innate distrust of anyone who loves their country enough to join.

Get Ready For Blue States To Demand Big Bailouts
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/04/get_ready_for_blue_states_to_demand_big_bailouts.html
Feckless blue states are spending like there is no tomorrow, but tomorrow will come, and they’ll be demanding red state money to pay their debts.
1) I begin by presenting three trends. One might even call them inevitabilities, and one might argue they’re not trends at all, but present realities that are intertwined and will tend to collapse in on each other, inevitably leading to the third inevitability.
1)The first trend is a Congress of feckless fools: our Congress does seem unable to accomplish anything of consequence, such as the SAVE America Act, which will make election fraud not necessarily impossible, but more inconvenient for the Democrat party, which arguably cannot win an election without massive fraud. A paralyzed Congress can’t even pay the Department of Homeland Security at a time when the danger of a massive terrorist attack within our shaky borders is at an all-time high. Democrats don’t care. If thousands of Americans die, they’ll blame it on Trump, with the help of their media propaganda arm.
2) The second trend is multiple blue states rocketing toward bankruptcy, with the expectation that the American people will empty their wallets to bail them out. This comes from a combination of profligate deficit spending, massive fraud funneled through Democrat NGOs and other fraudsters, and unfunded pension obligations that could bankrupt some nations.
3) When blue-state America learns its citizens’ standard of living is going to crater to pay for the preventable stupidity of people who hate them—people who will keep spending other people’s money—red states are going to secede. Even rumors of secession will be enough to drive blue states—and Congress—to mobilize against red states. It won’t be for a noble cause like abolishing slavery. It will be to seize the money and property of fiscally responsible Americans. They, like all socialists, will want to make everybody poor and miserable. Red-state Americans aren’t going to go for that, and our military, our police, federal agents—the works—will have to choose sides. It won’t work out the way Democrats think.
Are you beginning to see trends falling in on each other, leading to a crisis that’s becoming easier to imagine?
What crisis? A second civil war.

NY Dem. sponsors bill to deforest 11,000 acres of an important ecosystem for wind and solar—against the wishes of the locals

There’s a new bill working its way through New York’s state senate, which would open up around 11,000 acres of a crucial, forested ecosystem around the Finger Lakes to be razed for wind turbines and solar panels. Sponsored by Democrat Rachel May, the bill would reportedly not require approval from the county or town governing boards, and definitely not the people who live there. May’s bill actually opens up hundreds of thousands of acres of protected lands to corporate purchase for “renewable energy developers”—which means this wouldn’t just happen in the Finger Lakes, a watershed that happens to provide fresh drinking water to more than 2 million people in the state, but in protected landscapes all across the great state of New York. What would the ramifications be for the thriving fish populations, which draw fishermen from all over New England? What will this mean for wildlife? Local farmers? People who use the lakes in any number of recreational ways? I’m also going to go out on a limb here and speculate that these ‘yes’ votes probably have some of their portfolio tied up in the same “renewable energy developers” who stand to make a killing.

At the top was a large black-and-white photograph of an endless line of African and Middle Eastern men (and one lone woman). The setting, clearly, is Europe. At the bottom left of the photograph, in a little yellow button, is the word “love.” And underneath is this headline: “Why a ‘rise in sexual assaults’ by migrants is a price worth paying to end racism.”
AFRU argues that sexual assaults will lead to the end of racism—if they’re against white women who then embrace the romance of the thing.

Ships Making It Through Strait Raise Another Big Question on France, May Expose Cracks in Iran Effort
https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2026/04/03/some-ships-make-it-through-strait-including-france-n2200938
We reported on Thursday about a United Nations Security Council resolution, designed to try to ensure safe shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. The resolution from Bahrain: “[A]uthorizes member States, acting nationally or through voluntary multinational naval partnerships, with advance notifications to the Security Council,” to use all necessary means “to secure transit passage and to deter attempts to close, obstruct or otherwise interfere with international navigation through the Strait of Hormuz.” But three countries reportedly blocked the effort.: Russia, China, and France. Russia and China are predictable. But France? They’re supposed to be a NATO ally, and they’re going to block the use of all possible means to deal with the Iranian terrorist regime? That’s pretty weaselly. But it may get worse. Now comes word that some more ships made it through the Strait. Among them were ships linked to Japan, Oman, and…you guessed it…France.

Reporters have also spied on private, closed-door meetings and wandered into restricted areas near the Oval Office, and have been seen “ambushing” Cabinet officials after private meetings.

Hegseth Slammed for Barring Catholics From Good Friday Religious Services – There’s Just One Tiny Problem

Today’s bifecta in the Hegseth-hate and lab-rat category goes to the Huffington Post. This isn’t all that shocking for an outlet that was founded by progressive harpy Ariana Huffington, who also gained fame by driving her husband to embrace the gay lifestyle…here is literally no way Catholic and Protestant worship on Good Friday even vaguely resembles one another. The only thing nefarious here was the cheap shot taken at Pete Hegseth. What is so shocking about this is that I can’t imagine even in a secular craphole like the editorial spaces of the Huffington Post that someone didn’t read this, know the reason why the service was Protestant only, and said, “What the hell, yeah, it’s bullsh but it’s about Hegseth, run it anyway.”

Seattle’s new mayor has the most radical tax plan imaginable
https://www.theblaze.com/shows/the-glenn-beck-program/seattles-new-mayor-has-the-most-radical-tax-plan-imaginable
This “intentional destruction” has come in the form of a new tax being imposed in Seattle. “You make over a million dollars, … 9.9% extra tax,”…
“You feel like a criminal if you’re going to run a business. You feel, you know the city is against you, and the state is against you. Even now, Seattle businesses face one of the country’s most aggressive business and occupation taxes,”… regulations caused businesses to leave, and in turn the city decided to start taxing owners of vacant buildings on top of their already steep taxes. When companies noticed these insane regulations, they understandably chose to take their business elsewhere. “The employees all followed; the buildings emptied out,” Now, residents are trying to sell their homes — and they’re getting taxed for it. “Instead of asking why companies are leaving,” “city leaders ask a different question entirely. How do we punish the people creating jobs? How can we make their life even harder?”

FDNY HQ DEFILED: Muslim Prayer Rugs Spread Over Names of 343 9/11 Heroes Slain by Islamic Terror
https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/fdny-hq-defiled-muslim-prayer-rugs-spread-over-names-of-343-9-11-heroes-slain-by-islamic-terror.html/
FDNY headquarters defiled. Muslim prayer rugs, dozens, laid right in front of the 9/11 memorial plaque honoring 343 firefighters murdered by Islamists.
Prayer rugs over 9/11 heroes’ names while Mamdani smiles. Brazen disrespect. They hate you. Wake up.
Just to be clear, the attacks on 9/11 were in the cause of Islam. No amount of obfuscation, disassembling or outright deceit can change that awful truth. The jihadis’ last letters have all but been scrubbed from the public record. Read the “martyrdom” letters left by the Muslim terrorists.(https://gellerreport.com/2013/09/the-last-letters-of-the-911-muslim-terrorists-remind-your-brothers-that-this-act-is-for-almighty-all.html/) Allah is mentioned over ninety times. “Remind your brothers that this act is for Almighty Allah,” done for the cause of advancing Islam.
There’s a hair-trigger sensitivity in the muslim world, you can’t run the cartoons, you can’t say Mohammed, you can’t criticize jihad or sharia. We are warned, scolded, and threatened to respect Islam. But there is no reciprocity in Islam. There is no mutual respect.
(Muslims, especially jihadists, are TRUE believers that Islam, and nothing else, will rule the world in an Islamic Caliphate – They will do anything, because the end justifies the end – jlr)

Muslims Are the Real Victims of Antisemitic Crimes Committed by Muslims, You Know…
https://hotair.com/david-strom/2026/03/24/muslims-are-the-real-victims-of-antisemitic-crimes-committed-by-muslims-n3813187
Apparently, being demonic terrorists and evil people is just their culture, and it is Islamophobic to object to Muslims destroying civilization…A Jewish community in London was providing ambulance services to supplement the wildly understaffed National Health Service, whose own service is so understaffed and overburdened that people are dying waiting for ambulances. The ambulances were set on fire, destroying them just because they were owned by Jews. What was London Mayor Sadiq Khan’s reaction? After the obligatory blah blah blah about how hate is bad, he immediately does the inevitable “Muslims are the real victims here, you know” shtick…Many Muslims, in isolation, can indeed be splendid people. But as a group, Muslims are poison for Western Civilization. Imams throughout the West preach conquest, and many of their followers are serious about driving non-Muslims out of power and out of society itself…When Zohran Mamdani was campaigning for Mayor, he made appearances at a Mosque and campaigned with an Imam who was an unindicted co-conspirator with the 9/11 hijackers. His wife supports Hamas, illustrates wildly antisemitic books, and has expressed support for terrorism. He won and has brought Islam straight into the Mayor’s office. And any time people criticize him, the response is “Islamophobia.”

Finland’s Military Preparations Sound Awfully Old-School American
https://bearingarms.com/tomknighton/2026/03/23/finlands-military-preparations-sound-awfully-old-school-american-n1231961
What the Founding Fathers envisioned was a militia system where men would respond to the call, complete with their own guns and equipment, and would meet whatever threats we faced. That’s not how it works today, of course. The organized militia has been replaced with the National Guard, though the unorganized militia is still a thing, and those of us who make it up have our own weapons and gear. In Finland, a nation that reflects American gun culture more than most places in the world, it seems to be echoing that old-school militia mindset as they adjust to the changing military landscape that’s unfolded since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine…I love the fact that Finland is talking about people having guns suitable for military purposes and how they’ll be welcomed when one reports for duty. Let’s contrast that with how we have people here saying that we have no business with firearms suitable for military use…one thing we see is that when a nation is under threat, suddenly gun control goes out the window. When you’re worried about the enemy at your gates, what you want are as many guns as you can get. Ukraine practically handed out guns before Russia invaded, despite having gun control on the books beforehand.

‘Find Out’ Phase Underway as Sociopathic Anti-ICE Harpies Reap Convictions
https://pjmedia.com/athena-thorne/2026/03/24/find-out-phase-underway-as-sociopathic-anti-ice-women-reap-convictions-n4951011
It turns out that you can’t stalk officials, dox their innocent families, or try to run them over with your car without getting into hot water. What a difference a real DOJ makes!…Olivia Wilkins, 24, a Thomaston resident, pleaded guilty today in U.S. District Court in Portland to assaulting a U.S. Border Patrol agent engaged in his official duties. Wilkins faces up to 20 years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000, and up to three years of supervised release, and will be sentenced after the completion of a presentence investigative report by the U.S. Probation Office…earlier this very month, two other malevolent harpies achieved federal felon status at the hands of a California jury, no less. According to evidence presented at a four-day trial, on August 28, 2025, the defendants – while dressed in black and concealing their faces with black masks – followed the victim from a federal building in downtown Los Angeles to his personal residence. The victim was heading home to his family for an outing that included a surprise for his sons, ages three and seven. A jury found Coloradoan Ashleigh Brown and Californian Cynthia Raygoza guilty of felony stalking March 2 for following an ICE officer home in Los Angeles and livestreaming their pursuit on social media. Upon arriving at the victim’s neighborhood, the two shouted to bystanders while livestreaming on Instagram that their “neighbor is ICE,” “la migra lives here,” and “ICE lives on your street and you should know.” Raygoza also threatened to “pop” the victim. The victim’s wife and a concerned neighbor called 911 in response to the defendants’ actions…The days of wrathful women imagining themselves to be some sort of noble instruments of righteous justice are over. The truth is that they are uncommon criminals — facing federal charges — and unstable losers.

Democrats Have Already Killed the Filibuster
https://amac.us/newsline/politics/democrats-have-already-killed-the-filibuster/
Senate Republicans are currently debating whether to use a “talking filibuster” to pass the SAVE America Act. But while some in the GOP are worried about preserving the Senate’s long-standing rule requiring 60 votes to pass most legislation, Democrats have already signed its death warrant. Democrats are effectively weaponizing the filibuster to exercise a legislative veto over the executive branch enforcing the law in a manner that a majority of the American public voted for just 16 months ago. This is a new precedent that has opened the door to mass chaos in the future.

But the price of beef is going up, and it isn’t going to come down for a while…Why is beef expensive? Well, we have a very small national herd at the moment (historically so)…………

Chaos, Walkouts, and 95% Failure Rates: The Case Against the TSA Is Now Undeniable – Why the Democrat Funding Freeze Should Be the TSA’s Last Act
https://newsletter.amuseonx.com/p/chaos-walkouts-and-95-failure-rates
In Dante’s Inferno, the eighth circle is reserved for fraud, and if Dante were sketching his map of Hell today, the Transportation Security Administration would deserve its own sub-basement. But the argument against the TSA has never been more viscerally obvious than it is right now, in the spring of 2026, as hundreds of agents walk off the job, four-hour security lines snake through America’s airports, and a charity that normally feeds war zones is delivering free meals to unpaid federal screeners at our nation’s terminals. We have arrived, at last, at the logical endpoint of a twenty-five-year experiment in bureaucratic security theater. The experiment has failed. The question is whether we have the political will to admit it.

Cali Senator Scott Wiener Spreads Misinformation About ICE Arrest at SFO, Falsely Linking It to TSA Deployment
https://istandforfreedom.com/senator-wiener-misinformation-ice/
California State Senator Scott Wiene posted a a video that he claimed showed ICE agents “terrorizing a mother” at San Francisco International Airport. The footage spread like wildfire across leftist social media, complete with a wailing child and righteous bystanders attempting to shame federal agents for doing their jobs. The video had all the ingredients progressives crave; a sympathetic victim, a crying daughter, agents who could be painted as jackbooted thugs. But as with so many of these carefully curated outrage moments, the narrative collapsed under the weight of a single stubborn obstacle: the truth. The arrest occurred on March 22nd. ICE officers weren’t deployed to airports until March 23rd. Wiener’s entire premise, that this was somehow connected to the new TSA assistance program, was pure fiction.

Champagne Socialists Party It Up in Cuba While Populace Plunged In Darkness
https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/champagne-socialists-party-it-up-in-cuba-while-populace-plunged-in-darkness.html/
This is straight out of Orwell’s Animal farm -“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.” Trust fund babies partied until dawn as the entire island of Cuba was plunged into darkness with yet another grid collapse. Socialists from the US and Europe put on a concert in Cuba, just as the country was plunged into its third blackout this month, Saturday. A convoy of socialists — including streamer Hasan Piker, the daughter of Rep. Ilhan Omar, members of Code Pink, and lefty Irish hip-hop group Kneecap — is in Cuba with the goal of supporting Cuba’s oppressive communist regime. But Piker and others have been dogged by criticism for staying in a 5-star hotel in Havana, and Kneecap played a concert in the capital city as the rest of the nation of 11 million people faced yet another major blackout.

Almost every hurricane we went through in Miami had this rifle standing near me, and used only once. No bullets flew, but a trio of “yutes” decided to change their intentions and leave the area when they saw the silhouette of an object known across the world as a deliverer of final notices or painful and long-lasting consequences. I paid a grand total of $350, which included 2 mags and the background check. It amazes me that now I can probably walk into a gun show and have somebody offer me up to $1K for it.

TDS Runs the Democrat Party
https://redstate.com/adam-turner/2026/03/24/tds-runs-the-democrat-party-n2200528
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) recently said, in response to the question of “who do you think leads the Democratic Party today?”. “I think the TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome) that — I think that’s the leader right now. You know, right now our party, is, is governed by the TDS, and now it’s made it virtually impossible, without being punished, as a Democrat, to agree something’s good, or ‘I agree with the other side,’ and I would define that by [Operation] Epic Fury.” Sen. Fetterman gets it.
just to guard against confirmation bias, I looked to other prominent Democrats to see what they thought. Which brought me to the “Ragin’ Cajun,” James Carville, who is exceedingly “ragin” these days “You’re right, I got Trump Derangement Syndrome. I hate the motherfker. And you know what? I don’t wanna get rid of it. I don’t wanna get better. I wanna get worse. I wanna hate him more. I pray to God in heaven… Pray for me, Lord. I’m your vessel on this earth. Pray for the people that listen to this. We want more. We wanna hate the son of a bch so much that we can’t see straight!”. Carville also spoke for many other Democrat TDS sufferers to vow unrelenting jihad against the sitting president:

45,800. That’s how many more ballots were counted than were cast in Riverside, California. Let that sink in. If tens of thousands of ballots can appear out of nowhere in a single county, how many elections—local, state, even federal—have been compromised? How many outcomes were decided not by voters, but by a broken system no one wants to examine? Passing the SAVE Act isn’t optional. It’s urgent. It’s the bare minimum to start restoring order to an election system that’s spiraling out of control.

Democratic Attorney General Rob Bonta has reportedly filed an emergency writ with the Court of Appeals to halt Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco’s audit of a staggering 45,896-vote ballot discrepancy from last year’s special election on Governor Gavin Newsom’s controversial Proposition 50 redistricting scheme. Why the desperate Hail Mary to block transparency on an effort to explain how officials certified 657,322 votes in a county where only 611,428 ballots were actually cast? That’s a massive gap in numbers. And you’d think the top law enforcement officer in the state would be somewhat curious as to how that might have happened.

The Double Debt Mountain of 2026
https://wilderwealthywise.com/the-double-debt-mountain-of-2026/
Credit card debt, the gateway drug of insolvency. Sure, payday lenders and “buy here, pay here” car places are the crack cocaine and meth of debt, but it all starts somewhere…Gen Z is running around $3,500 in average balances, while Millennials are pushing $7,000. They’re not buying yachts or avocado toast, they’re financing groceries, gas, and rent…Interest already eats 19% of all federal revenue. By 2036, CBO says it doubles to $2.1 trillion and consumes nearly a quarter of everything the government takes in, but the CBO is always low, because they have to use the assumptions that Congress made up. Yes. AOC is responsible for the rules of the game. But what do we want to spend our money on? Defense? Medicare? Infrastructure? Sorry, the interest check has to clear first.

Tehran Rejects US Proposal, Iranian Source Says
https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/tehran-rejects-us-proposal-iranian-source-says.html/
Of course, Iran’s leaders reject the U.S proposal for a peace agreement. Iran’s leaders perceive diplomatic attempts to end this war as weakness and desperation. And Iran responded with ridiculous demands of their own, which include war reparations, sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz, and guarantees against future strikes. We will have to see how these negotiations play out. However, it seems very unlikely that there is a diplomatic solution to ending this war. Furthermore, any deal that is signed with Iran will be ripped to shreds after President Trump leaves office. Force is the only language Iran’s leaders understand.

“Iran’s attack on Gulf allies of the United States and Jordan is an attack on the entire world and the world economy,”…”Effectively, Iran is trying to give the global economy a heart attack,” she said…The question is why. The answer is because we are an idea that threatens Iran. Because we are open, we are progressive, we are tolerant, we’re a vibrant economy…”We should not allow Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism, to set the global price for food and gas.” That’s why President Donald Trump was calling for a coalition. Not because we couldn’t handle it, but because it’s a world concern, and others have much greater interests in the Strait than does the U.S…We have now seen Iran take the irresponsible decision instead of negotiating with the United States… they chose instead to fire over 2,200 missiles and drones at the United Arab Emirates, a peacemaker in the region…”The UAE has fought side by side with the United States in over six coalitions in our history. We have shared values, we have shared history with the United States. We have interoperability with the United States. They are a clear partner to us in regional security, and we intend to double down on that. Today we are looking at a threat to the international community at large that needs to be stopped in whatever way possible.”…while they always favor a diplomatic option, Iran needed to understand that behaving as a rogue actor was not acceptable. Iran isn’t going to like this, and this blows up any narrative that the UAE would be breaking away from the U.S.

States Are Running a Tax Experiment and Red America Is Winning

Red and blue states are moving further apart than ever before on tax policy – and new population data shows that Americans are noticing. As high-tax Democrat states continue to bleed population, low-tax Republican states are seeing a surge in growth. A new study from The Wall Street Journal reveals just how polarized states are becoming on tax policy. “Republican-led states are racing each other to flatten, cut and eliminate individual income taxes, with 23 states lowering their top income-tax rates since 2021,” the Journal reports. “Democratic-controlled states are moving the opposite way, pushing to increase taxes on top earners to combat inequality and plug budget holes.”

American intelligence agencies reportedly intercepted some jaw-dropping Ukrainian government communications in late 2022 that show officials openly discussing using supposed clean-energy infrastructure projects as cover to divert hundreds of millions of American taxpayer dollars. The plan, according to a report summarizing the intercepts obtained by Just the News, was to route roughly 90% of that money, funneled through U.S. companies and sketchy subcontractors with hard-to-track contracts, straight to the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to bankroll Joe Biden’s 2024 re-election campaign. Ukrainian officials were reportedly coordinating with unspecified U.S. Government personnel through USAID in Kyiv as part of the brazen scheme.

“The Fellowship of the Ring” was released in 2001, but times have apparently changed more than we realized. According to Comic Book Review, a lot of Peter Jackson’s trilogy is hard to watch through a modern lens. (https://www.cbr.com/8-reasons-tough-watch-the-lord-of-the-rings-trilogy-today/)
Saying that Tolkien belonged to a different era is a blame-deflecting argument used in defense of the author’s borderline-colonial gaze.
While all the Elves are compassionate at heart, they clearly represent white characters.

And the moment they enter and see a firearm, the situation changes completely.

Tom Homan just revealed the dark secret inside Biden’s immigration scam…
https://revolver.news/2026/03/update-tom-homan-just-revealed-the-dark-secret-inside-bidens-immigration-scam/
if they placed them in ICE beds, the illegals would have a mandatory court date in about a month. So, to make sure that didn’t happen, Homan says the Biden regime placed them in hotels so they stayed in the dark and could move into our communities unnoticed. Taxpayers foot the bill for fancy hotels while the government avoided ICE beds that would’ve triggered hearings and accountability. So when people look at this and start asking whether the whole thing was designed to flood the country, they’re not crazy. Tom Homan just proved that. The better, safer, cheaper option was there, but the Biden regime took a pass on it. And the only logical reason to do that is because you want people released into the country that are not easy to reach, while the taxpayer picks up the tab. What makes this even more disgusting is that Dems didn’t always talk this way. Not that long ago, even Barack Obama was saying the kind of thing today’s left would call “racist” and “hateful.” The left’s position changed when mass immigration stopped being a problem and started being a political asset. But once open-border chaos became the key to their new voter bloc, all the old common sense was tossed out the window. Chuck now wants his 10 million new voters. Obviously, we weren’t supposed to see how the sausage was made. But now we have the recipe. The costs, the incentives, the cover-up stories, and, of course, the endgame. They tried to destroy the country to maintain political power. The American people are going to want accountability, but will they get it?

Illegal voting is not that “rare”
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2026/03/illegal_voting_is_not_that_rare.html
The evidence on illegal voting is thin — but not because it doesn’t exist. It’s thin because it’s rarely sought. Election officials don’t audit citizenship status systematically. States rely mainly on self-attestation, assuming honesty in the absence of meaningful verification. It’s a system built on trust, not proof…Confidence in democracy depends on verification, not denial. The SAVE Act doesn’t restrict voting — it restores integrity. The right to vote belongs only to citizens. Given the patchwork of state regulations, this duty must fall on the federal government to ensure it does.

She makes this clear in the context of a discussion of the conflict with the Islamic Republic of Iran. Will the Army take action? Or would doing anything to call Brewer to account be “Islamophobic”? So what happens now? Will Brewer remain in the military? Will Secretary of War Pete Hegseth deal with the issue of the divided loyalty of Muslims in the military? Or will this ongoing problem continue to be ignored?

https://thereload.com/federal-judge-upholds-post-office-gun-ban-creating-circuit-split/
US District Judge Vernon D. Oliver ruled against a Second Amendment challenge to the federal ban filed in the District of Connecticut…in Florida, US District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle, and Texas, US District Judge Reed O’Connor, came to the opposite conclusion from him. In a criminal case filed against a postal employee who carried his gun while at work, Judge Kimball determined the ban didn’t fit with the historical tradition. She said that post offices have existed since the founding, but they weren’t among the places the Founders declared were off-limits to guns…“Rogue lower courts continue to torch the Constitution, trading Bruen and Heller for cheap ‘guns are scary’ hysteria. They’re not even pretending to follow the law anymore.”

…Baltimore City Circuit Court denied Glock’s motion to dismiss a lawsuit seeking restitution for the criminal use of Glock products. State Judge John Nugent ruled the suit falls within a new “public nuisance” exception to the federal Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA) created by Maryland’s new Gun Industry Accountability Act (GIAA). He said that was enough to allow the suit to proceed past Glock’s initial motion.

We’re all headed to the same exit ramp. The good news is, until then, most of us get to choose how we spend those miles unless a pack of comedic crime-fighting kids and a dog start snooping around my crawlspace. The guy in the mirror is the one who decides. Choose the sunset. Choose the conversation. Choose the book on the deck. Choose the work that doesn’t feel like slow death. Stack the free wins. They compound faster than any investment account, and the dividends are paid in meaning, not just money.

Recd from Texas:

Fellow Texan,

Last week, the U.S. Treasury quietly released numbers that should’ve been front-page news everywhere. They weren’t. Let me tell you what they said—and what it means for Texas.

The Federal Government Just Admitted It’s Mathematically Destroyed

The Treasury’s consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2025 show $6.06 trillion in assets against $47.78 trillion in liabilities. That’s a negative net position of $41.72 trillion—and it got $2 trillion worse in a single year.

But that’s just what’s on the books. Add in the off-balance-sheet obligations—unfunded liabilities for Social Security and Medicare—and you get another $88.4 trillion. Total federal obligations: $136.2 trillion. That’s roughly five times the entire annual economic output of the United States.

The Government Accountability Office, for the twenty-ninth consecutive year, couldn’t certify that the federal government’s books were accurate. Twenty-nine years without a clean audit. The Department of Defense still can’t account for its own spending. This is the government that presumes to manage Texas’s future.

What this means: Texas doesn’t need permission to build a solvent future. We need the political will to stop being dragged down with a sinking ship.

Read the full story: The U.S. Government Just Admitted It’s Broke. Nobody Noticed.

And No, Texas Doesn’t Owe Them a Dime

Right on cue, the critics deploy their favorite fear tactic whenever independence comes up: “But what about Texas’s share of the national debt?” This myth has been weaponized to make Texans feel trapped.

Here’s what international law actually says: newly independent states have no automatic obligation to assume predecessor state debt. This isn’t theory—it’s been tested for two centuries. When Belgium declared independence from the Netherlands in 1830, they refused to pay Dutch debt. Result? Belgium retained zero obligation and became a thriving, creditworthy nation. When Ireland gained independence, Britain demanded they assume proportional Imperial debt. Ireland’s negotiators argued the debt resulted from Britain buying weapons to suppress the Irish. The final settlement? One pound.

Texas holds an even stronger position. Unlike territories that were net recipients of imperial spending, Texas has been a donor state for decades—paying more into the federal system than we receive back. We don’t owe them. They owe us.

What this means: The debt myth is psychological warfare designed to keep Texans in line. International precedent and law say otherwise.

Washington Can’t Deliver Your Mail. Texas Isn’t Allowed To.

Every independent nation on Earth delivers its own mail. Barbados does it. Slovenia does it. Iceland, with an economy smaller than Lubbock’s, does it. Texas—with a $2.9 trillion economy, 23 seaports, and three stock exchanges—cannot move a letter from Houston to Dallas without permission from Congress.

This week, Postmaster General David Steiner told lawmakers that USPS will run out of cash in less than twelve months. The agency lost $9 billion last year and another $9.5 billion the year before. Mail volume has collapsed. They’ve maxed out their $15 billion borrowing cap—a ceiling Congress hasn’t raised since 1992.

Congress built the agency. Congress imposed the mandates. Congress created the regulator. Congress capped the borrowing. And now Congress can’t agree on how to fix what Congress broke. Meanwhile, Texas leads the nation in exports, moves over $440 billion in goods annually, and has world-class logistics infrastructure. But we can’t deliver a letter across town.

What this means: This is what dependency looks like. A system Texas didn’t build, can’t fix, and isn’t allowed to replace—even as it collapses.

Taking the Declaration at Its Word

I spoke at the Abbeville Institute Conference in Montgomery last week on the topic of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. My message was simple: the United States is about to throw the most expensive birthday party in history for a breakup letter—and then call anyone who reads it out loud a radical.

They’ll celebrate the right of self-determination on the Fourth of July. And they’ll call it treason on the Fifth.

The real Declaration doesn’t end with “all men are created equal.” It ends with thirteen “free and independent States.” Plural. That word does a lot of heavy lifting that the proposition nation crowd would rather you not think about. The founders didn’t create a document about abstract equality—they signed a political act declaring thirteen distinct communities’ right to self-governance. That’s what we’re doing in Texas. Same principle. Same right.

What this means: The spirit of 1776 didn’t expire. And it applies to Texans today every bit as much as it applied to colonists then.

Read the full story: Taking the Declaration at Its Word and Scaring the Hell Out of the Political Establishment

The numbers don’t lie. The federal system is collapsing under its own weight. The only question is whether Texas goes down with it—or builds something better. Join the Texans who’ve decided to build.

Join the Movement

We’re not waiting for Washington to fix itself. That ship has sailed—and sunk. Texas has the economy, the infrastructure, and the people to chart our own course. All that’s left is the will to do it.

Republic of Somaliland Asks U.S. to Extradite Ilhan Omar There to Face Justice
https://pjmedia.com/catherinesalgado/2026/03/28/republic-of-somaliland-asks-us-to-extradite-ilhan-omar-there-to-face-justice-n4951173
After official confirmation that Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) did, in fact, commit immigration fraud, the Republic of Somaliland — which has good reason to be bitter at the crimes of Omar and her Somali family — offered to be the hammer of justice if the United States would extradite Omar there.  The tantalizing offer comes after Vice President JD Vance confirmed on Benny Johnson’s show what many of us have thought of Omar for a long time — there is, in fact, solid evidence that the radical Islamist member of Congress committed immigration fraud. “We actually think that Ilhan Omar definitely committed immigration fraud against the United States of America,” Vance stated.

NEARLY EVERY SINGLE Democrat Voted Against Simple, Scaled Down Voter Photo ID
https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/democrats-vote-against-voter-photo-id.html
Democrats claimed they supported voter ID, even as they opposed the SAVE America Act over other provisions. So lawmakers put forward a stripped-down amendment: just show a photo ID to vote. Simple. Clean. No extras. Nearly every Democrat voted it down. The measure failed in the Senate on Thursday, despite Chuck Schumer saying days earlier his party wasn’t against voter ID. So much for their lies . When it came time to act, they killed the very standard they claimed to support. The party of election fraud will never pass election integrity legislation.

The Home-Grown Shahed Drone Threat to America
https://steelcutter.substack.com/p/the-home-grown-shahed-drone-threat
First, watch this very short video: “Launching Shahed-type drones from a moving pickup truck.” (So there is no need for rocket assisted launching)(https://www.youtube.com/shorts/6mJ2ZtXqV3U)
Folks, we are going to see this attack vector spread around the world, including in the United States. The Iranians invented and developed the small attack drone niche, the Russians copied it with their Gerans, and now even the USA is belatedly copying it with the Lucas. But the most important point is that ANYBODY can make these in a garage. The plans are so basic any competent hobbyist can produce them. Two fiberglass shells, top and bottom, other parts that are not difficult to fabricate, a small gasoline engine and a prop in the back. Steer it with a camera in the nose by Starlink plus GPS or other means…what I project: disaffected migrants or foreign agents currently in the USA and other countries can easily set up shop and produce a dozen or more home-made Shahed-type drones…We may see critical infrastructure attacked with home-built Shahed type drones. I don’t see how we prevent this. Going back to our gas liquefaction plants, I’m sure there are people who are thinking, “Why should America make out like bandits by selling expensive LNG to the world, after they wrecked the global economy on February 28 with their sneak attack war of choice on Iran?”…Between internal sabotage and drone strikes, we should expect attacks on our critical infrastructure such as oil refineries, fuel tank farms, chemical plants and LNG liquefaction plants

AlertsUSA Threat Journal
https://www.threatjournal.com/archive/tj03282026.html
On Sunday, March 22, AlertsUSA subscribers were informed that the State Department had issued an updated Worldwide Caution urging Americans everywhere, and especially in the Middle East, to exercise increased caution amid heightened risks from groups supportive of Iran. It explicitly states that “U.S. diplomatic facilities, including outside the Middle East, have been targeted” and that “Groups supportive of Iran may target other U.S. interests overseas or locations associated with the United States and/or Americans throughout the world.”
This warning comes amid direct U.S.-Israeli military operations against Iran launched in late February. These strikes targeted Iranian ballistic missiles, nuclear infrastructure, naval assets, and command nodes. Iran has responded in part by activating its longstanding proxy network—the so-called “Axis of Resistance.”

Epicenter of Violence: Iraq
The epicenter of current proxy violence is Iraq. Iran-backed Shia militias embedded in the Popular Mobilization Forces have launched hundreds of drone, rocket, and missile attacks against U.S. personnel and facilities since February 28. Multiple arms of Hezbollah, along with various front organizations, have repeatedly struck the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, the Baghdad Diplomatic Support Center at the airport, Erbil International Airport, U.S.-linked bases, hotels housing American personnel, and even U.S.-operated energy infrastructure in Basra and Kurdistan.
These militias, armed, trained, and directed by Iran’s IRGC Quds Force, have conducted over 180 attacks on U.S. positions in the region in prior cycles alone. The current surge mirrors that intensity.

Expanding Regional Threats
Beyond Iraq, the threat radiates outward. Hezbollah in Lebanon retains global reach through criminal networks and narco-trafficking from Mexico and Latin America into the U.S., Canada, and Europe. The group has conducted reconnaissance and assassination plots against Jewish and U.S. targets worldwide for decades.
Yemen’s Houthis, despite U.S. strikes in 2024-2025, retain missile and drone stockpiles supplied by Iran. They have previously demonstrated the ability to disrupt global shipping in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandeb Strait. On Friday, a Houthi military spokesman stated that they have their “fingers on the trigger” as the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran widens, and they are ready for direct military intervention if more countries join the war against Iran or if the Red Sea is used to launch attacks.
The global dimension of this conflict stems from Iran’s hybrid playbook: covert operatives, criminal surrogates, sleeper cells, and cyber units. Pro-Iran hackers have already hit U.S. medical and defense contractors, water plants, and regional data centers since the war began and are likely probing for disruptive follow-on operations.

Ushering in the Hidden Imam
Readers would do well to remember who we are up against in this war.
There are two main sects in Islam: Sunni and Shia. Shia Muslims are primarily concentrated in Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, and Bahrain, while Sunnis make up the majority of the remaining Muslim world.
Iran’s Shia regime, particularly the extremist “Twelver” variety that dominates the IRGC and hardline clergy, are gripped by a fanatical eschatology centered on the return of the so-called Hidden Imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi, the twelfth and final successor to the prophet Muhammad who died in 632 AD. Adherents insist the Mahdi will only appear amid maximum global chaos and apocalyptic upheaval, when the world is drenched in the blood of infidels.
The true fanaticism lies in the interpretation of Twelver eschatology promoted by Iran’s regime: the belief that instead of waiting for divine gears to turn on their own, it is their sacred duty to actively hasten the Mahdi’s arrival by manufacturing the required hellscape through relentless jihad, martyrdom operations, proxy wars, and the deliberate provocation of Armageddon.
Thus, chaos is not a risk—it is the fuel. Martyrdom is not a tragedy—it is acceleration. This is not fringe mysticism within the IRGC power structure. It is the doctrinal engine that glorifies suicide attacks, human slaughter, and nuclear brinkmanship as holy prerequisites for the Mahdi’s return.

A Deadly and Persistent Threat
For American citizens, diplomats, businesses, and travelers, the risk is not abstract. Hotels, commercial aircraft, shipping lanes, energy facilities, and soft targets linked to the U.S. are now in play. The new Worldwide Caution is not alarmism. It is a clear recognition that Iran’s preferred method of war (proxy terrorism with global reach) has been activated in response to direct strikes on their homeland. The threat is persistent, adaptive, and calibrated to impose costs.

Islam’s modus operandi is as follows: when Muslims are in a minority in countries to which they have migrated they claim Islam is a religion of peace. Once their numbers increase they start to agitate for considerations unavailable to non-Muslims in those countries under the guise of obtaining civil liberties. When they gain power it’s, “Do as we say or we will kill you.” That is how a country loses its culture, its values and its traditions.

A new kind of “personality” – not having one
https://disaffectedpod.substack.com/p/a-new-kind-of-personality
So many things about the 2020s are new under the sun. Really. We’re seeing people behave in ways that we’ve never seen before in prior generations, and it’s not merely the normal changing of fashion and culture. It’s an abrupt introduction of the just plain weird. It’s not gradual, either. One generation’s music, culture, slang, and manner isn’t shading into the next generation’s as has always been the case until now. Instead, smart phone “culture” has acted like an old-school IBM mainframe that sends out the same code to every green-text-on-black-screen dummy terminal. The dummy terminals are Gen Z young people. No, of course not all, and most certainly not your children (so stop yourself from leaving that comment that I’ll delete). But yes, identifiably widespread among that specific generation.
*
These “kids” don’t have personalities. I mean this plainly without hyperbole. They do not have distinct personalities the way people used to. They all sound the same because they are the same. They’re running entirely on programming that substitutes its terminology, phrases, and body movements for what used to be an individuated human personality.
*
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s daughter, Hope, is a good example. Here she is apparently talking about the No Kings protests. I say “apparently,” because she is not actually talking about anything. Listen to her words. If you like, transcribe a few sentences, then read them back. Does that read like thought? Was there any discernible message? She does not have a personality, and she doesn’t have thoughts. She has a collection of affectations, all on-brand. Stilted, halting pronunciation. Eyes that flick around all over the place. Hand movements. Poses. Forced pitch intonation shifts? to make? every statement? sound like a question? like a kindergarten teacher would ask it?

Explaining Terminal Ballistics with a motorcycle accident
https://miguelgg.substack.com/p/explaining-terminal-ballistics-with
According to Google, Terminal ballistics is the study of a projectile’s behavior upon striking, penetrating, and interacting with a target, focusing on energy transfer, bullet expansion, and damage mechanics. It basically explains how come a itty bitty peace of pliable metal can do damage and the simple answer is speed…The rear of the car is now not so neatly folded inside the vehicle alongside the motorcycle. Most of the bike is inside the car and it injured a woman inside gravely. I have seen lots of videos of bikes rear ending cars at low speeds, both the car and the humans involved walking away from the accident. That both car occupants survived somehow is a plain miracle.

Iranian regime leaders have been surreptitiously sending their kids to live, learn, and even teach in America. New York Post: Iranian leaders call the US the “Great Satan” and burn effigies of President Trump in the streets, but that doesn’t stop them from sending their kids here to learn — and to teach. Children of regime leaders and bigwigs are at prestigious universities across the US, including the University of Massachusetts, New York’s Union College and George Washington University

David A. Hughes explains why escaping the official narrative is only the first step toward breaking the bonds of propaganda.
embedded video 01:05″25
Many people remember the exact moment when ‘things’ didn’t quite add up — what they saw, read and what they ‘knew’ were somehow at odds with each other. Maybe it was COVID, or 9/11, or the war on terror, or the Great Financial Crisis… for some, it could have been well before that. Still, at some point these folks stopped believing the official story and started questioning things once unquestionable. They started reading different sources and noticing patterns. They left what David A. Hughes calls “camp one” — the world of official narratives.
Does that describe you?

Sheriff Calls Out Dem AG Intimidation Over Massive Ballot Discrepancy in Newsom-Backed Prop 50 Scheme

Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco is accusing Democratic Attorney General Rob Bonta of trying to intimidate and derail his department’s investigation into a shocking 45,896-vote ballot discrepancy involving Governor Gavin Newsom’s Prop 50 redistricting scheme. Proposition 50, passed in a special election this past November, allows the state legislature to temporarily override the independent Citizens Redistricting Commission and redraw…congressional maps to favor Democrats until the 2030 census. Prop 50, officially titled the “Election Rigging Response Act,” is an actual example of election rigging. What’s worse, Bianco, who is a leading 2026 Republican gubernatorial candidate, is probing whether it was passed through nefarious or possibly rigged means.

Iran’s 2,300-Mile Big Lie Just Exploded: Missiles Fired at Diego Garcia, Thousands of Miles From Tehran
https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/range-was-a-lie-iran-hits-2300-miles.html/
“Iran is not a threat.” Iran just fired missiles at Diego Garcia – 2,361 miles from Tehran. They were not supposed to have this range.
Surprise, surprise, Iran lied! Tehran to London 2750 miles – Tehran to Paris 2610 miles – Tehran to Berlin 2200 miles
Iran just proved it can strike over 2,300 miles—hitting Diego Garcia with missiles it insisted didn’t exist. This wasn’t a test. It was a revelation…Iran just launched missiles at Diego Garcia—more than 2,300 miles from Tehran—demonstrating a strike range it was never supposed to possess. For years, its capabilities were downplayed or deliberately obscured. Now the reality is unmistakable. Put that distance in perspective: Tehran to Berlin is roughly 2,200 miles, to Paris 2,600, to London 2,750. What was once dismissed as theoretical is now proven in practice.

It hasn’t helped the regime that their alleged Supreme Leader, Moqtaba Khamenei, has not been seen since the start of Operation Epic Fury, and no one even knows if he is alive. He supposedly issued a statement for the Nowruz holiday, but again, he wasn’t seen, and he didn’t even read it, so there was no confirmation. As we noted, the message was unhinged from reality, claiming they were “breaking the enemy,” and that he believes in good relations with his neighbors, even as he is attacking them.

Chinese scientists have turned mosquitoes into flying vaccines — that can still bite human
https://www.theblaze.com/news/chinese-scientists-have-turned-mosquitoes-into-flying-vaccines-that-can-still-bite-humans
Researchers from the nation that likely unleashed COVID-19 unto the world have transformed mosquitoes into flying syringes.
Some researchers, including a group at the Bill Gates Foundation-backed Leiden University Medical Center in the Netherlands, have already attempted in recent years to fashion mosquitoes into flying vaccine delivery systems with human targets in mind…scientists at the state-controlled Chinese Academy of Sciences — an institution that has a strategic partnership with the People’s Liberation Army Academy of Military Sciences — have targeted bats, purportedly designing mosquitoes to instead deliver recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus-based rabies and Nipah vaccines to the flying mammals. Like rabies, Nipah virus is a potentially deadly virus found in animals. Whereas rabies has nearly a 100% fatality rate in humans once symptoms manifest, the estimated case fatality rate for Nipah virus ranges from 40% to 75%.

Donald Trump Issues 48-Hour Ultimatum to Iran — Open the Strait of Hormuz or Face Disaster

If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP
the clock started as of the moment he posted, which was 7:44 p.m.ET, March 21, 2026
The president said he would “obliterate” Iran’s power plants, “starting with the biggest one first!” That would seem to put a bullseye on one of their nuclear facilities: Iran’s largest power plant is the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant, located on the Persian Gulf in southwest Iran. It is Iran’s only commercial nuclear power plant. The Strait of Hormuz has been effectively closed to most ship traffic by Iran’s military forces since the war began three weeks ago. The crucial waterway is responsible for the movement of approximately 20% of all global oil, and its shuttering has led to a spike in gas prices. Mr. Trump’s statement comes after the Treasury Department Friday announced that it was lifting sanctions on Iranian oil at sea as it attempts to bring down those prices.

The Islamization of Britain is Almost Complete
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/03/the_islamization_of_britain_is_almost_complete.html
British institutions are relentlessly embracing Islam, attacking classic British culture, and turning a blind eye to Islamic crime and antisemitism.
Britain is now a shadow of its former self, having allowed its institutions, the media, academia, and the public to be heavily influenced by Islam, which the late Christopher Hitchens described as “the most toxic form that religion can take.” Fashionable deference to Islam—the government, for example, treats even the most innocuous criticism of Islam as “hate speech”—has caused a noticeable shift in power, identity, and influence, and it may not be long before Britain becomes an Islamic state. The Muslim population is projected to exceed 8% by 2030. There are over 2,000 mosques, more than 85 sharia courts challenge British common law, sharia finance is growing in popularity, halal food is widespread, and the government recognizes Islamic holidays with an enthusiasm that would shame many Muslim countries. Iftars are hosted at the House of Commons, and Ramadan prayers are offered at Windsor Castle, a symbol of Britain’s historical pre-eminence.

Schumer and Warnock Admit Non-Citizens Vote While Opposing Election Integrity Bill
https://americanjournaldaily.com/dems-senate-illegals-voting/
The ballot box is the only thing separating a free republic from total chaos. It’s a sacred promise that the voice of the American citizen—and only the citizen—charts our nation’s destiny. Every legal vote is a thunderclap of freedom, a right bought and paid for with the blood of patriots. Without that fundamental trust, the whole experiment in self-governance goes up in smoke…In a jaw-dropping moment of carelessness on the Senate floor, two of the Democrat party’s top dogs effectively made the case for the very bill they were trying to bury.
“The evidence is that almost no illegal aliens vote,” Schumer said in remarks on the Senate floor. Warnock similarly acknowledged the issue while listing statistics about voting records in his home state. “8.2 million people are registered to vote in Georgia. The Republican secretary of state found 20 instances of noncitizens who were registered, and only nine had ever attempted to vote,” Warnock said.
♦ Top Democrats admitted on the Senate floor that illegal aliens are voting.
♦ The Left claims voter fraud isn’t real while providing evidence that it is.
♦ The SAVE America Act is a common-sense plan to ensure only citizens vote.
♦ Democrats block election integrity to protect a system they can easily exploit.

Ask any (good) parent what one of the harder lessons to impart to your kids is, and you’ll almost always hear some variation of, “Your actions have consequences.”…not all parents believe in this concept…Judge Raquel West isn’t a household name, but that didn’t stop her from going viral this week after she dressed down an 18-year-old who had clearly never learned that his actions can have consequences — like 25 years in prison. But West didn’t simply hand down a quarter-century prison sentence for Caden Fontenette and his accomplices.(Those actions included a three-on-one ambush of a convenience store employee in a brazen 2025 robbery attempt, which Fontenette pleaded guilty to)…There was a time when personal responsibility wasn’t a controversial concept, when “you made your bed, now lie in it” wasn’t seen as harsh, but as foundational.

Anti-Trump Republican Has Political Operative Tied to the Most Radical Democrats in Texas on Payroll

Texas Rep. John Lujan has had a troubled past with the America First and MAGA movements in the Republican Party. From blaming President Donald Trump for his electoral losses in 2018 to supporting an amnesty for “great citizens” who came into the United States illegally, he is a dream candidate for RINOs. That could not be more apparent after Townhall discovered that Lujan has kept a Democrat political operative used by the radical left-wing Castro brothers on his payroll. Campaign finance reports have revealed that Lujan has paid thousands of dollars to Leticia Cantu, a political operative who “managed Julian Castro’s successful mayoral campaign” and “has served as a trusted consultant to Congressman Joaquin Castro.” Julian Castro is the former HUD Secretary under President Joe Biden, and Joaquin touts one of the strongest progressive ratings in all of Congress…Lujan owes much of his success to the Dade Phelan-establishment in Texas. Phelan, a man Trump has labeled as a “weak RINO,” recruited and funded Lujan’s political endeavors. Lujan later repaid Phelan by nominating him to the speakership of the Texas House. Trump had previously threatened to support a primary challenge against Phelan, and would later endorse an alternative candidate for the speakership.

Second Amendment Sanctuary 2.0 Still Rolling Out Across Virginia

It’s not getting nearly as much press attention this time around, but the second coming of the Second Amedment sanctuary movement is still underway in Virginia, six years after more than 100 counties, towns, and independent cities adopted resolutions and ordinances vowing not to enforce any unconstitutional gun control measures…Keep in mind, though, that the State Police will be enforcing these laws, at least at the agency level. The Second Amendment sanctuary movement is valuable and important, and I’m thrilled to see that version 2.0 is still gaining ground throughout Virginia, but it won’t be able to mitigate the damage from every new gun control law that will be taking effect later this year.

As an increasingly isolated Iran lashed out in rage Saturday, more than 20 nations responded to President Donald Trump’s call to take action to reopen the Strait of Hormuz after the U.S. military pounded Iranian positions with 5,000-pound bombs. Iran sent shivers down Europe’s spine by launching two ballistic missiles at the British base on the Indian Ocean island of Diego Garcia, which is almost 2,500 miles from Iran, according to the BBC. Prior to the launch, Iran’s long-range ballistic missile capabilities were thought to be far more limited. One missile failed in flight. An American warship intercepted the other.

… the District filed an en banc review of the three-judge panel’s decision, and pleaded with the court to grant the request as quickly as possible. In fact, D.C.’s attorneys argued that the court shouldn’t even wait for the plaintiffs to reply to the en banc request because “the effect of the Division’s decision on public safety has been extraordinary and immediate, warranting prompt action.” Keep in the mind that the DOJ said months ago it would no longer prosecute individuals for possessing “large capacity” magazines, so it’s been up to the District to enforce the misdemeanor since then.

Nigerian Researchers Accidentally Confirm Africa’s Low IQ Problem
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/nigerian-researchers-accidentally-confirm-africas-low-iq-problem
For many years the political left has dismissed all discussion about links between third world populations and low intelligence as “racism” and “xenophobia”. The well documented fact that low IQ populations are more inclined towards lack of impulse control and a higher crime rate does not matter to progressives. They assert that such claims are based on “rigged” and “biased” data. For example, the data on Somalia’s low median IQ (which is 67 and far below the western average of 100) is often criticized as “incomplete” because the data is usually taken from refugees and migrants leaving the country rather than a population sample from within the country. However, populations in neighboring countries like Djibouti or Ethiopia have nearly identical test results…Ideally, western nations should be looking for the best of the best of any potential immigration source. This can be measured in a lot of ways, with loyalty and a willingness to integrate being at the top of the list. That said, IQ should also be considered. There’s no practical excuse to dismiss it, only ideological excuses.

Exxon Mobil Was Evidently ‘Born to Run,’ Because It’s Ditching NJ for Friendlier Business Climes

You may have read about numerous prominent large corporations headed for the exits in blue states like California and heading for more welcoming climates in business-friendly states like Texas and Florida. Why? They’re sick of getting constantly hammered with taxes, regulations, and hostility from state governments. Now it’s the Exxon Mobil Corporation, which announced Tuesday that 144 years after it incorporated in the state, its Board of Directors unanimously recommended that shareholders change the company’s legal domicile from New Jersey to Texas.

Left-Wing Activists Caught Plotting to Rig Juries Against Trump DOJ Prosecutions
https://redstate.com/ben-smith/2026/03/10/left-wing-activists-caught-plotting-to-rig-juries-against-trump-doj-prosecutions-n2200039
A left-wing activist network is training liberals how to slip onto juries in federal cases and then vote “not guilty” to derail prosecutions brought by the Trump Justice Department. Recordings and training materials tied to the group Freedom Trainers show activists being coached on how to conceal their left-wing views during jury selection and then use jury nullification once they are seated on a jury. The webinars, slide decks, and pamphlets behind the effort all push the same approach: Blend in during selection, say the right things to get seated, and use the jury room to block convictions.

Senate Majority Leader Thune Is a ‘No’ on Changing Filibuster Rules As SAVE Act Stalls in Congress

The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, which would require providing ID to vote, passed the House in February but sits stalled in the Senate, where it needs 60 “ayes” to overcome a filibuster…Republican lawmakers have pushed for a return to the “talking filibuster,” the old-style version where senators had to speak nonstop to hold up legislation. In the modern version, they just have to signal their intent to filibuster, and then they can go about their business…Eighty-three percent of Americans support voter ID…It is certainly aggravating that our legislature cannot pass a bill that has overwhelming support from the people who should matter, the voters. Despite the frustration of some that the Republican leadership has been unable to solve the logjam, though, it’s important to remember that in the end, it’s Democrats who are defying the will of the people. The only way to stop their shenanigans is to win big in the midterms.

Australian Anti-Gun Push Offers Stern Warning to American Hunters
https://bearingarms.com/tomknighton/2026/03/11/australian-anti-gun-push-offers-stern-warning-to-american-hunters-n1231829
The term “Fudd,” as I typically use it, refers to someone who owns guns, uses them, but is very quick to throw our rights under the bus because they think guns should only be for hunting or something. They’re more than willing to sell us down the river by supporting universal background checks, assault weapon bans, or even bans on many semi-automatic rifles, shotguns, and pistols. After all, it doesn’t impact their old .30-.30 lever action or bolt-action .30-06.
And, honestly, that’s a stupid way to look at things. After all, when they say they’ll never ban your hunting rifle, they mean it. They’ll call it a sniper rifle first, most likely. Still, gun control is gun control, and the Australian Deer Association in Australia–the kind of group our Fudds might be proud members of–is seeing the effects of gun control’s mission creep, and they don’t like it.

Church Security Alert: We Just Went to RED — Here’s What You Need to Know
https://www.christianwarriortraining.com/p/church-security-alert-we-just-went
We just raised the alert level for churches nationwide – The church security threat level is moving from High (Orange) to Severe (Red). This change reflects a convergence of threat factors, including sustained jihadist incitement against churches, growing concern regarding Iran and its proxies, reporting on possible external signaling to hostile elements outside Iran, and the approach of Easter, when churches become larger, more predictable, and more symbolically significant targets. While recent reporting regarding an Iran-linked drone threat adds to the broader retaliatory picture, the more immediate and likely danger to churches remains lone actors or small cells inspired or directed by ISIS, Al-Qaeda, or Hezbollah-linked elements.

Israeli Drones Striking IRGC Goons in the Streets

…the mullahs are not in charge, and the civilian control of the military has evaporated to the point where the IRGC is overruling the civilian council before a new Supreme Leader was installed. And the IRGC picked the new Supreme Leader, Khamenei’s son, who appears to be either dead or in a coma…The biggest obstacle to the end of the regime is the IRGC secret police, who still control the streets, and who have proven willing to murder countless Iranians to stay in power. They have intimidated the civilians who controlled the government, as if that mattered, and are threatening to massacre the population should they rise up…The Israelis are systematically destroying the IRGC’s ability to control the population, a few soldiers at a time. It’s difficult to say when morale among the lower ranks of the IRGC will collapse, but if these attacks persist and are successful, there will be a point at which it does.

New York City’s Credit Outlook Downgraded to Negative by Moody’s Amid Mamdani’s Budget Deficit
https://istandforfreedom.com/new-york-downgraded-mamdani/
There’s an old saying in finance: the market doesn’t care about your feelings. It doesn’t care about your campaign promises, your ideology, or who you blame for the mess you inherited. It only cares about the math…nder Eric Adams, for all his flaws, the city repeatedly earned positive credit reviews. Three months of Mamdani, and Moody’s is flashing warning lights. City Hall dismissed the move as “premature,” banking on a $5 billion bailout from Albany…Property owners, business operators, high earners — they can read a balance sheet. More importantly, they can read a moving truck brochure. When you punish the people who generate wealth to fund an ideological wish list, they leave. And when they leave, the math gets even worse.

It’s time to find out who runs the Republican Party: Donald Trump or John Thune (RINO-S.D.)…Meanwhile, Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) goes on camera and all but admits the quiet part: the rolls include millions of noncitizens, and Democrats don’t want ICE clearing them out before the next election. He’s saying it out loud…If Republicans can’t pass the SAVE Act in the face of that kind of brazen hubris and illegality, nothing else will matter — not Iran, not an economic rebound, not a shiny jobs report. Midterm obliteration is coming, and that means Trump 2.0 turns into impeachment 2.0.

BASIJ MILITIAS UNDER HEAVY ATTACK ACROSS IRAN – Reports are emerging of multiple new attacks targeting Basij militia units, the street-level enforcers used by Iran’s Islamic regime to police neighbourhoods and suppress dissent. Several checkpoints and militia positions are said to have been hit overnight, continuing a pattern of strikes against the regime’s internal security network. The Basij have long served as the front line of the dictatorship’s control on the streets — running checkpoints, monitoring civilians, and crushing protests. Now those same units appear to be coming under sustained and systematic attack. If the reports continue to mount, it could signal a serious weakening of the regime’s ability to control the streets inside Iran.

Israel has been relying in part on target information sent by ordinary Iranians for strikes carried out during the current war with Iran…Iranians on the ground have been transmitting information in Persian through Israeli social media accounts…the information is first verified and vetted by Israeli authorities, and action is taken only after it is found to be accurate.

“Dear Chuck Schumer,
Hi. Black dude here. I can trace my family ancestry to slavery. I even know where they were slaves. My mom experienced Jim Crow. I think I’ve watched every episode of ‘Eyes On the Prize’ when I was younger.
With that said…
Can you directly explain to me how the SAVE Act is ‘Jim Crow 2.0?’ Literally every black person I know has ID. Literally every black person I know has a car or at least a ride. Literally every black person I know knows how to vote (well… except the ones with felonies… but they don’t count).
With your advanced white liberal thinking, you must know more than me. Apparently, as I experience daily on this app, white liberals are experts on being black; even more so than actual black folks. Perhaps you could explain it like I’m five. I’d look it up on the internet, but Kathy Hochul has already told me I don’t know what a computer is and Joe Biden said I can’t navigate it, anyway.
Looking forward to your answer.

Spring is trying to spring in North Texas — although we’re looking at a low of 28 degrees F on Sunday — and the days are topping out in the high 60s to low 70s. My doctor is a big proponent of sunlight and started riding my butt about getting outside during my Great Cortisol Poisoning period of 2020-2022. I argued with him a bit — pointing out that I am a light-eyed, fair-skinned redhead — and he looked at me like I was stupid, before gently pointing out that sun exposure was a spectrum, with “Lobster” at one end and “Dead Fish” at the other; and that 10-20 minutes outside early in the morning or late in the evening wasn’t going to up my chances of skin cancer all that much. It would, he continued, do wonders for mood regulation, my immune system, and my quality of life in general.

56% Of Americans Now Suspect COVID-19 ‘Vaccines’ Caused Mass-Deaths
https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/56-americans-now-suspect-covid-19-vaccines-caused-mass-deaths
A new Rasmussen survey (https://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/trump_administration_second_term/56_suspect_covid_19_vaccines_caused_deaths) of 1,158 likely U.S. voters – conducted September 7–9, 2025, with a ±3% margin of error – reveals that 56% believe side effects from the COVID-19 shots have likely caused a significant number of unexplained deaths. Nearly one-third (32%) say it’s very likely. Only 35% still dismiss the idea.

Coffee King Howard Schultz Flees To Florida Hours After Washington Wealth Tax Passes House

This just goes to show that state legislators are idiots. “The new wealth tax, which will raise an estimated $4 billion per year.” But only if the millionaires choose not to move, and Schultz proves that they will…Schultz’s announcement came hours after the Washington state House passed the so-called Millionaires’ tax after more than a day of debate. The new wealth tax, which will raise an estimated $4 billion per year, will be used to cut other taxes and expand the Working Families Tax Credit to an estimated 460,000 households (until, of course, a flood of high-earners leave the state).

US Airstrikes ‘Totally Obliterate’ Iranian Military Targets on “Crown Jewel” Kharg Island
https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/trump-us-airstrikes-totally-obliterate-iranian-military-targets-on-crown-jewel-kharg-island.html/
The U.S. military bombed Iran’s most strategic economic asset, Kharg Island. The tiny spot of land in the northern Persian Gulf is the launch point for 90% of the country’s oil exports. Despite its size, it is one of the most critical pieces of Iran’s energy infrastructure. The US striking this small but vital island in the northern Gulf is like going for Iran’s economic jugular vein. Ninety percent of Iran’s crude oil comes through a terminal on the island – transported through pipes from the mainland.

But he warned Iran that if they didn’t open the Strait of Hormuz, they would consider hitting them. He also said the United States and other countries would send warships to ensure that the Strait was open. Marines were also being dispatched to the region…Iran said Saturday that all countries besides(meaning other than) the US and Israel may pass through the Strait of Hormuz, in a desperate attempt at coalition-busting less than a day after the US bombed military targets on its oil-critical Kharg Island. “As a matter of fact, the Strait of Hormuz is open,”…“It is only closed to the tankers and ships belonging to our enemies, to those who are attacking us and their allies.

New York City’s far-left Gothamist has the sads, because when one member of the left’s conglomeration of haters, traitors, freaks, parasites and psychopaths suffers, the whole coalition of the weird suffers. This time, however, there is a silver lining: one of the bright stars of the contemporary left, New York Mayor Zohan Mamdani, is on the case… the alleged spike in “Islamophobia” is all because of Trump and the rhetoric of patriotic lawmakers. It does include a small nod to reality, noting that “matters devolved last weekend after a right-wing agitator led a protest outside Gracie Mansion called ‘Stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City.’ Two alleged Islamic State sympathizers attempted to throw homemade explosive devices into a crowd of people and police, but the items failed to detonate.”…That’s all Gothamist has to say about that.

The Best Quote on Islam That You’ve Never Heard – Winston Churchill Predicted Europe’s Fall to Islam All the Way Back in 1899
https://www.westernjournal.com/best-quote-islam-never-heard-winston-churchill-predicted-europes-fall-islam-way-back-1899
Former British Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill recognized Islam’s threat to Europe in 1899… his observations regarding Islam are as timeless and politically astute as any by the British statesman… from The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages 248-50 (London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1899).
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property—either as a child, a wife, or a concubine—must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen; all know how to die; but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science—the science against which it had vainly struggled— the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.”

I walked away from California Democrats to keep my sanity – Noosheen Hashemi
https://www.theblaze.com/columns/opinion/i-walked-away-from-california-democrats-to-keep-my-sanity
It used to feel good to be a Democrat in California. Emphasis on used to — and President Trump’s recent State of the Union address illuminated exactly why I left the party…What changed my mind was not the rhetoric. It was the outcomes. California is the glaring example of the failure of liberal policies.
Three areas illustrate the pattern…
∙ Elections: When California Democrats treat voter ID as ideological heresy, they weaken the legitimacy of the system they claim to defend.
∙ Family: When the state becomes the decision-maker – Compassion cannot justify dissolving the family as the primary unit of accountability.
∙ Fiscal reality: Math still applies – California’s budget rests on a narrow and volatile base…Wealth-based tax proposals focus on the very taxpayers who fund a disproportionate share of state commitments.
The pattern is simple. Spend expansively. Measure loosely. Promise morally. Deliver inconsistently.

“Plus-sized”* being a polite euphemism here for “morbidly obese”; the lady likely singlehandedly exceeds weight limits on non-freight elevators.

And it’s like when we say we hate men, we are really saying we hate the patriarchy. We really hate the system that keeps men in power and keeps men harming us. Men hate us as people. Men hate us individually. Sometimes people are like why are you so angry about the patriarchy, Kristen? I don’t think people are aware of like the level and the quantity of things that their fathers and brothers and grandfathers and friends and boyfriends and husbands have been saying to me for, like, 13 years constantly, every day.

Former MSNBC, ABC News, and Bloomberg hack Mark Halperin is trying to survive in independent media…he hosted Dr. Glenn Burnett to discuss the psychological issues afflicting the TDS hordes in the wake of the dawn of America’s Golden Age…Wyoming doctor told Mark Halperin Thursday evening many of his patents are in crisis after President Donald Trump took office for a second time last month. Internal medicine physician Glenn Burnett joined Halperin on 2WAY Tonight, where he compared the mental health of patients he has treated since Trump won the 2024 election to those he saw after the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks. Burnett explained his patients are from “all walks of life” before Halperin noted he was concerned before the election that a Trump win might cause untold voters to become “deeply troubled.”…The doctor lamented that elections are held every four years just before the holidays and said he had seen a great deal of patients who had cut family members off since the election*.
More from the doctor:
What has happened is I am just bombarded with all kinds of things all the time. I would say, to be fair, to set it up, when Biden was the president, I had all kinds of stuff from the other side. But it has been extremely intense. The last – the week or two after the election was pretty intense. It then calmed down, and now it’s really back up. We are dealing with depression, anxiety, all kinds of medical problems that are related to that, like insomnia, chest pain, chest pressure. And then people are — there’s some genuine fear, panic. I hear things from people all the time that I just — I don’t want to repeat because they’re — people, I don’t think would believe me. That just people have these very, very severe anxieties about what is going to happen to them. And it is affecting their lives… I was a physician during 9/11 and it was like this then … people are having real crises.

*This is a phenomenon that I have experienced in my personal life.

The response was usually something like, “I’ll say something sometime, and all hell will break loose”. I personally know 3 Hispanics who were thrown out of their family for voting other than Democrat, not Republican, just other than Democrat. “YOU ARE DEAD TO US!” – sad but true – jlr)

We Need Our Guns
https://www.lewrockwell.com/2026/03/lew-rockwell/we-need-our-guns/
Arguments about the right to own guns often turn out to be arguments about the meaning of the “right to keep and bear arms” in the Second Amendment. These debates are important, and I will say something about them later, but there is an even more essential issue… John R. Lott, Jr., the foremost authority on the statistics of gun ownership and crime, has said, “There is a clear consensus among economists about self-defense, gun-free zones, firearms and suicide, and concealed handgun laws. Among North American economists: • Eighty-eight percent say that guns are more frequently ‘used in self-defense than they are used in the commission of crime.’ • Ninety-one percent believe that gun-free zones are ‘more likely to attract criminals than they are to deter them.’ • Seventy-two percent do not agree that ‘a gun in the home causes an increase in the risk of suicide.’ • Ninety-one percent say that ‘concealed handgun permit holders are much more law-abiding than the typical American.’• Eighty-one percent say that permitted concealed handguns lower the murder rate.”… The historian Joyce Lee Malcolm has done important research in this area in her definitive book Guns and Violence: The English Experience (Harvard, 2002). She proceeds by a learned study of violent crime in England, from the Middle Ages to the present. In her survey, a constant theme emerges. As guns became more prevalent, violent crime decreased.

Trump’s prison order draws a line that reality should have drawn first
https://www.theblaze.com/columns/opinion/trumps-prison-order-draws-a-line-that-reality-should-have-drawn-first
Allowing men into women’s prisons should never be called ‘compassionate care.’…Women in prison deserve the dignity to heal without being sacrificed to an ideology… Trump’s executive order barring taxpayer-funded gender surgeries in federal prisons signals a shift away from treating prisons like laboratories for social experimentation. The order supports women and supports safety. For incarcerated women, it means they no longer have to watch men receive treatments and accommodations designed to make them “feel like a woman,” while the women themselves lose basic standards of privacy and dignity the moment they enter custody.

The Oil Shock of 2026: Pulp Fiction Economics
https://wilderwealthywise.com/the-oil-shock-of-2026-pulp-fiction-economics/
Plastics? Oil. – Transport? Trucks, ships, planes all guzzle it. – Heating an East Coast home in winter? Oil or derivatives. – Lubrication for machines that make everything from iPhones® to insulin? Yep, oil again. When the price jumps it acts like a stealth tax on every single human activity that involves moving atoms around. We’ve already seen Brent crude north of $120 a barrel, with whispers of $150 if this drags on. Groceries will cost more because trucks burn fuel. Manufacturing grinds slower because inputs skyrocket. Even that Amazon® package shows up later and at a higher price…Historically, high energy prices have been a tyrant’s best friend. Cheap energy? That’s freedom fuel. It lets people build, innovate, travel, and produce wealth without begging the government for handouts. Low prices mean less dependence on central planners I can heat my home, drive to work, and fill my tank without the state holding the reins. But jack up those prices? Wealth creation stalls. People cut back on extras, then necessities. Factories idle. Jobs vanish. Suddenly, the masses are clamoring for subsidies, price controls, “emergency” aid.

Trump Calls on Five Nations to Help Reopen Strait of Hormuz, Gets Uninspiring Responses
https://www.westernjournal.com/trump-calls-five-nations-help-reopen-strait-hormuz-gets-uninspiring-responses/
∙ The European Union said it was all for opening the strait, but did not go as far as saying action was imminent. “It is in our interest to keep the Strait of Hormuz open, and that’s why we are also discussing what we can do in this regard,” said Kaja Kallas, the EU’s top diplomat for foreign affairs and security policy.
∙ Ed Miliband, Britain’s energy minister, emphasized that the “best and simplest way” to reopen the strait was to curb the war.
∙ Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said none of its navy is heading into the dangerous waters of the war-torn Persian Gulf.
∙ China sidestepped the question entirely, but has said the war should stop.
∙ French President Emmanuel Macron has said that once the danger has passed, France would send warships to help ships make it through the strait.
∙ South Korean President Lee Jae Myung’s office said it would “communicate closely with the United States,” but made no promise of action.

‘Not this week, not ever’: Schumer vows to block Trump’s SAVE Act
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2026/mar/15/week-ever-schumer-vows-block-trumps-save-act/
Schumer vows to stop SAVE Act from ever passing: Requiring voter ID is a bridge too far for Senate Democrat Leader Chuck Schumer, who has vowed to stop it from “ever” passing. If only those with an ID can vote, how will all the illegals cast their votes? Senate Republican Leader John Thune opined that the commonsense measure to require photo ID should “get an automatic ‘yes’ vote from literally every member of this body.” Currently, the SAVE Act would require 60 votes to pass the Senate, and Republicans only hold 53 seats. Our Thomas Gallatin has explained that even measures such as reworking the Senate filibuster would be unlikely to guarantee passage of the bill. Americans across party lines support voter ID requirements. If upholding the will of the people is impossible for the Senate, it is a judgment on that legislative body.

Dems Aren’t Even Hiding Their Election Shenanigans Now
https://pjmedia.com/stephen-kruiser/2026/03/16/the-morning-briefing-dems-arent-even-hiding-their-election-shenanigans-now-n4950678/
For a very long time, Democrats insisted that election fraud was a nonexistent fever-dream that Republicans were having. In recent years, their story has shifted, and they now acknowledge that some election fraud might exist, but that it’s rare. Lately, the growing concern on the right is that the flood of illegal aliens who have been waltzing across our southern border will be making their way to the polls and voting. Again, Democrats swear that this isn’t the plan, but nobody on this side is buying that. There is a lot of concern in blue states about having any federal immigration enforcement at polling places next November.
If there are no illegals voting, why would having immigration officers at the polls be a problem?
Democrats aren’t answering that question, and now they’ve begun to make sure that the feds stay away.

Early-season heatwave intensifies across western United States, Extreme Heat Warnings issued
https://watchers.news/2026/03/18/early-season-march-heatwave-intensifies-across-western-united-states-extreme-heat-warnings-issued/
A strong and persistent high-pressure system has stalled over the Desert Southwest on March 18 and will bring a widespread and potentially record-breaking early-season heatwave across the western United States. The stalled system is forecast to expand, allowing the heat to spread eastward from California and the Great Basin into the Rockies and Great Plains by March 20. This configuration suppresses cloud formation and enhances solar heating, supporting continued temperature increases across a broad region. The heatwave is forecast to persist through the weekend, with conditions expected to gradually return closer to seasonal averages early next week as the upper-level pattern weakens and shifts.

Mayor Mamdani References ‘Palestinian Genocide’ at St. Patrick’s Day Event, Adds Trash to NYC Dumpster Fire

A dumpster fire doesn’t go out on its own — somebody has to stop feeding it. Nobody told Zohran Mamdani. Since the Democratic socialist took over as mayor, New York City has become a masterclass in progressive misgovernance. People have frozen to death on the streets while he pours billions into homeless hotel shelters that warehouse problems instead of solving them. Trash piles up on sidewalks like modern art installations nobody asked for. And when an ISIS sympathizer threw a bomb at the governor’s mansion, Mamdani’s instinct was to blame — I kid you not — white supremacists.

NYC Mayor Mamdani Signs $1.9 Billion No-Bid Hotel Contract to House Homeless for Three Years
https://americanjournaldaily.com/mamdani-billion-hotel-homeless/
Let’s be honest about what’s happening to our cities. They were once beacons of American ambition, places where common sense and hard work were the currency of success. Now, they are laboratories for a warped, progressive version of “compassion” that does nothing but create misery. This new ideology isn’t about solving problems. It’s about signaling virtue by burning through mountains of other people’s money…competition is a dirty word for socialists. Instead, Mamdani’s team handed a blank check to the Hotel Association of New York City Foundation, a group representing 300 hotels.
★ NYC’s socialist mayor is spending a staggering $1.9 billion to rent hotel rooms.
★ The “no-bid” contract enriches a politically connected hotel “cartel” with taxpayer money.
★ Mamdani is closing a city-owned shelter while funneling billions to private hotel owners.

★ Japan, South Korea, Britain, Australia and Germany all declined or stalled
★ China, unusually called upon despite being a U.S. rival, stayed silent

(Since allies (and adversaries), including NATO, are refusing to join the US in militarily keeping the Strait of Hormuz open, and NATO members have not fully funded NATO for decades, relying on personnel and material from the USA – I wonder if Trump might be setting up to withdraw from NATO.

I can picture President Donald Trump guffawing at the news — it’s one of those allegedly “non-presidential” things that he does, which I find so entertaining. U.S. intelligence believes that the new Iranian Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is gay. Trump was briefed on this intelligence tidbit last week and reportedly burst out laughing with the rest of his national security team. The irony is lost on no one. Iran executes men for being gay, and for the Islamic Republic to countenance a gay man as Supreme Leader is the height of cynicism and hypocrisy. Three (UNIDENTIFIED/anonymous/”the usual suspects”-jlr) sources told the New York Post of the intelligence, saying that the information was credible and not a rumor intended to undermine Khamenei the Younger.

During Northern Hemisphere winter, El Niño often brings wetter conditions to the southern United States while contributing to warmer temperatures across northern North America.

Trump waives Jones Act for 60 days in bid to free up the flow of oil to US ports
https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/trump-waives-jones-act-60-days-bid-free-up-flow-oil-us
President Trump issued a 60-day waiver of the Jones Act, a century-old law requiring cargo between U.S. ports to be carried on American-built, American-owned, American-flagged, and American-crewed ships, in an effort to ease fuel costs as the war with Iran chokes off the Strait of Hormuz. The strait normally carries about a fifth of the world’s oil, and its effective closure has pushed Brent crude above $103 per barrel and sent the average U.S. gas price to $3.84 per gallon. The waiver opens domestic ports to foreign vessels carrying oil, natural gas, fertilizer, and coal, removing a bottleneck that has long driven up shipping costs between U.S. ports. The Jones Act has been waived multiple times for emergencies, including after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, Hurricane Maria in 2017, and the Colonial Pipeline cyberattack in 2021.

The fact is, why they are refusing to help the USA with Iran is that
the European politicians in Europe are terrified of what the millions of MUSLIM “migrants”(an invading army), that they have invited in, might start creating more violent terrorist incidents than they are already doing, if they help the USA in any way – and that might cause the European Liberal Sheeple they rule to rebel and vote them out of their nice cushy jobs, and worse off the “A” list party circuit.

If not for a jury of his peers, Daniel Perry would be in prison for “manslaughter.” But Nassadir Tate, whose attack on a Penn Station straphanger led to his death, walks free with a ticket.

Iranian President Pezeshkian Wants to Resign
https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/iranian-president-pezeshkian-wants-to-resign.html/
Even after one of history’s greatest military triumphs that took out some of the world’s most dangerous architects of terror, the Democrat media machine continues to whing and whine and decry the elimination of murderous madmen and the world state sponsor of terror. It sneers, nitpicks, and all but mourns the fall of a regime that has spread bloodshed for decades. The eradication of Iran’s mullahcracy would be a seismic win for human freedom and global security, relief for millions living under its boot. And still, the party of grievance and its media echo chamber can’t stand it. But there’s no one to whom he can submit that resignation. Perhaps he doesn’t want to go “meet” all his erstwhile terrorist colleagues. I

Mamdani rages as immigration judge orders deportation of NYC Council employee
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2026/03/19/mamdani-rages-as-immigration-judge-orders-deportation-of-nyc-council-employee-1628172/
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani lashed out at what he called an “affront to justice” after an immigration judge ordered the deportation of a former City Council employee who was detained earlier this year. In January, 53-year-old Rafael Andres Rubio Bohorquez – a Venezuelan national – checked in for a “routine immigration appointment” in Nassau County and was taken into custody when the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) identified him as a “criminal illegal alien” who entered the U.S. on a 2017 tourist visa and never left. He also has a previous arrest for assault, meaning that his detention was fully justified, and now, he’s about to be put on a plane and sent back to where he came from. Hizzoner fumed over the judge’s hasta la vista to Rubio Bohorquez, taking to X to express his disapproval and to demand that he be released immediately.

Damning study of over a million kids finds myocarditis only in the vaccinated
https://www.theblaze.com/news/damning-study-of-millions-of-kids-finds-heart-problems-only-in-the-vaccinated
The peer-reviewed study — conducted by researchers at the University of Oxford, the University of Bristol, and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and published in January in the scientific journal Epidemiology — looked at the safety and effectiveness of the Pfizer-BioNTech BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine in healthy children ages 5-15 following the rollout that began in late 2021. Using data from the OpenSAFELY-TPP database with the blessing of NHS England, the researchers compared the “effectiveness and safety of: (1) the first vaccine dose versus no vaccination and (2) a second dose versus a single dose only.” Specifically, they compared 141,711 children ages 5-11 and 410,463 adolescents ages 12-15 who were given a first dose of the vaccine with equal numbers of unvaccinated children from the same age groups. The researchers found that the vaccination provided some benefits, including an “initial protective effect” that waned by 14 weeks as well as a lower incidence of emergency room visits than recorded among the unvaccinated cohort. They noted, however, that “myocarditis and pericarditis were documented only in the vaccinated groups, with rates of 27 and 10 cases/million after the first and second doses, respectively.” As late as January 2023, the U.K. Health Security Agency said that “the reported rate for heart inflammation (myocarditis and pericarditis) was 13 per million first doses and 8 per million second doses of the monovalent Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine” among those under the age of 18. “That there were no cases of myocarditis or pericarditis in the unvaccinated group does not mean that such events cannot occur without COVID-19 vaccination, only that these events were not observed in the unvaccinated groups in our specific matched analyses,” the study noted.

Trump Dumps on NATO After Every Spineless NATO Ally Refuses to Help Secure Hormuz, ‘They Will Do Nothing For Us’
https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/nato-cowards.html/
♦ Every member of NATO refused the call to help the United States to restore freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. All of them.
♦ These parasites have lived off American security guarantees while offering nothing in return—for far too long.
♦ The USA must stop funding these useless organizations.
President Trump put NATO allies on notice Tuesday after they shunned his request for assistance in keeping the Strait of Hormuz open for international shipping…when asked if he would remove the United States from NATO. “I don’t need Congress for that decision, as you probably know, I can make that decision myself.”…“I’m very disappointed in NATO, very disappointed,” he said. “We spend trillions of dollars on NATO. Think of it, trillions over the years, many trillions of dollars. It’s one of the reasons we have deficits.”…The US is the largest financial contributor to the alliance, estimated at approximately $980 billion in 2025, accounting for 65% of its defense budget.

The EU at the Narrow Passage – The Hormuz crisis threatens to become a catastrophe for Europeans.
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/03/the_eu_at_the_narrow_passage.html
The Hormuz crisis threatens to become a catastrophe for Europeans. No region is as dependent on oil and gas supplies as Europe, while the United States can operate from a comparatively sovereign position of energy self-sufficiency…U.S. President Donald Trump has raised the question of whether it is even in America’s interest to keep this lifeline open under heightened risk — a shocking message from a European perspective, yet one that has largely passed without reaction.(because they still think/hope that Trump is bluffing/weak/will keep it open anyway because the  Stupid Uncle Sugar always has – jlr)… President Trump openly questioned on Wednesday whether the U.S. Navy should ensure the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz at all…If the energy supply collapses, the foundations of civilization crumble.

Tariff Threat Shocks U.S. Allies

President Trump is warning America’s “friends” that sitting on the sidelines against Iran could come with a price tag—paid in tariffs, not apologies.

There’s a very interesting article in European Business Magazine this morning. This extensive quote explains what’s been happening:
https://europeanbusinessmagazine.com/business/how-america-replaced-lloyds-of-london-in-48-hours-and-took-control-of-the-worlds-most-critical-oil/
Iran’s attacks on Gulf shipping spiked maritime insurance rates by 400% overnight. Lloyd’s panicked. Coverage was pulled…Within 48 hours of Lloyd’s withdrawal, two things happened simultaneously. The US Navy, operating through US Naval Forces Central Command, expanded its escort operations across the Gulf — effectively offering the physical protection that insurance underwrites. And American insurers began moving to replace Lloyd’s coverage entirely, stepping into a market that British financial infrastructure had monopolised since the reign of William III.

♦ “Iran’s top military spokesman warned Friday that “parks, recreational areas and tourist destinations” worldwide won’t be safe for Tehran’s enemies. Gen. Abolfazl Shekarchi made the threat as Iran continues to be hit by American and Israeli airstrikes. It renewed concerns that Iran may revert to using militant attacks beyond the Middle East as a pressure tactic in the war.”

A new force in British politics is making waves with an uncompromising vision for national restoration.

We are going to strip millions of healthy Brits who refuse to work of benefits. If that causes outrage from those who think the taxpayer owes them a living, so be it. We are going to deport all illegal and burdensome migrants. If that means millions go, so be it. We are going to outlaw incompatible cultural and religious practices. If that means those who refuse to integrate no longer feel welcome, so be it. We are going to execute pedophiles, rapists, and murderers if that is what the British people want. If that means we are condemned by subversive “human rights” groups, so be it. We take no pleasure in these measures. It is a damning indictment of our political class that they are necessary in the first place.”

And we didn’t tell anyone about it because we wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? OK? Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor? OK? Right?”…”We had to surprise them, and we did,” the president said of Iran. “… If I go and tell everybody about it, there’s no longer a surprise.”

Censorship and repression: Proton VPN’s end of year report 2025
https://protonvpn.com/blog/eoy-report-2025
A notable trend was the increasing willingness of authoritarian governments to damage their own economies and the livelihoods of citizens by implementing total internet shutdowns…Most notable, however, was the increasing threat to internet freedom in Western democracies by-and-large considered “free.” From age verification laws introduced without considering the full ramifications to social media restrictions, to DNS server blocks, access to a free and open internet is imperilled now more than ever…1. Iran. On June 18, as the Iran–Israel War escalated, Iran imposed a near-total internet blackout that lasted three days. The government severed international connections and blocked access to websites, social media, messaging services, and foreign VPN servers. Only Iran’s domestic intranet and government-approved services remained accessible…3. Afghanistan. On September 29, citing “immorality”, the Taliban imposed a 24‑hour total internet blackout affecting roughly 30% of the population. The shutdown came after the regime began removing(new window) women‑authored books from universities and restricting girls’ education past age 12, prompting some women to turn to online learning…3. USA. In 2024, framing the measure as protection against “foreign adversary–controlled applications”, Congress passed legislation requiring TikTok to divest its US operations or face removal from app stores and US internet infrastructure.

An LNG carrier identified as the Arctic Metagaz, part of Russia’s emerging shadow fleet transporting sanctioned liquefied natural gas, was reportedly on fire early Tuesday in the central Mediterranean off the coasts of Malta and Libya…More analysts are leaning toward the drone attack explanation for the explosion and subsequent fire, and attributing it to the Ukrainians

Khomeini’s grandson: ‘The day the Islamic nation gets the chance, we’ll erase Israel’
https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/khomeinis-grandson-the-day-the-islamic-nation-gets-the-chance-well-erase-israel.html/
make no mistake: the Islamic nation worldwide will keep trying to destroy Israel, because it’s taught in the Qur’an that the Jews are the worst enemies of the Muslims (5:82) and that the Muslims must “drive them out from where they drove you out” (2:191). The Israelis really didn’t drive out the Arabs; the Arab Higher Committee told the Arabs to leave in 1948. But the last was once ruled by Islamic law and so according to that same law, it belongs to Islam forever.

THE B-52 SIGNAL: The U.S. Air Force just sent a message to the world—not through a press release, but through aircraft selection. The arrival of the B-52 Stratofortress over Iran marks a definitive shift in Operation Epic Fury. To understand the gravity, you have to understand the sequence of the last 96 hours.
Military strategists use specific tools for specific phases of a campaign. Here is the timeline of the “Big Wave”:
Feb 28 (The B-2 Spirit): Stealth is required. $2.1 billion per aircraft. You send the B-2 when air defenses are lethal and intact. They dropped 160,000 lbs of bunker-busters on hardened underground sites.
March 2 (The B-1 Lancer): Speed over stealth. You send the supersonic B-1 when defenses are degraded. These conducted the deepest raids since 2003.
March 3 (The B-52): The “Giant Barn.” It’s 70 years old, subsonic, and visible on every radar on Earth.
The takeaway? You only send the B-52 when there is nothing left to shoot it down.
By the Numbers: Quadrupling the Firepower
The transition to the B-52 isn’t just symbolic—it’s a massive escalation in payload:
Strike Capacity: The U.S. has 76 B-52s compared to just 20 B-2s. We just quadrupled our available heavy bomber strike capacity.
Payload: Each B-52 carries 70,000 lbs of ordnance per sortie.
Intensity: 1,700 targets struck, 300 new sites added. The campaign is intensifying, not tapering.

Deployment of America’s Oldest Bomber Means
https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/03/04/the-buff-in-iran-what-the-deployment-of-americas-oldest-bomber-means-n2199835
Now, we’re using the BUFFs. The B-52, wonderful though it is, is about as stealthy as a D-9 Caterpillar driving over a pile of wrecked cars. It’s slow. It has the radar cross-section of New Zealand and the infrared signature of an erupting volcano. Its use in and around Iran means one main thing: The Iranians have nothing left with which to shoot at them…but if you need a few dozen square miles of countryside destroyed and you need it destroyed right now, the BUFF can get that done…The BUFF can carry stand-off weapons, including cruise missiles, and I’ve heard rumors that they have been adapted to launch drones. But the main thing the BUFF has going for it is a big, big bombload. Each BUFF can carry 51 750-pound iron bombs. That’s a lot of BOOM for your buck. And now some Iranian goblins are finding out, like the Iraqi Republican Guard and the North Vietnamese Army before them, that Arc Light means never having to say you’re sorry.

The GOP Can’t Be Rid of Thom Tillis Quickly Enough
https://pjmedia.com/stephen-kruiser/2026/03/04/the-morning-briefing-the-gop-cant-be-rid-of-thom-tillis-quickly-enough-n4950204/
Republicans in North Carolina were voting for their candidate to run and replace the execrable Thom Tillis. As Chris said in response to the fact that Tillis isn’t running again, “WOOHOO!” Tillis is one of those backstabbing members of the GOP who have me convinced that the Democrats have Manchurian candidate plants in the party. He’s not reliable on most big votes. If he does end up not screwing over his own party, it’s only after a lot of grandstanding so that he can get some all-important facetime in front of the cameras. Yesterday, Tillis reminded us why it will be a boon when the party finally gets rid of him. This is from my good friend Matt Vespa over at Townhall: The hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee today became tense during Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s testimony. The most notable moment was Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) fiercely criticizing Ms. Noem over what he considers poor leadership at DHS, which is partly shut down due to Democratic Party tactics. He really did lose it on Secretary Noem; it was very AOC-esque in its shrill, emo ridiculousness. Tillis is an embarrassment through and through…My Democratic plant theory looks stronger all the time with this guy. Tillis has been a disappointment on my radar for a long time now. I was writing about him back in 2022 when he cosponsored an absolutely horrible amnesty bill with Kyrsten Sinema, my senator back then. So, yeah, he’s been a problem for a while.
Watch very carefully to see if you can spot the difference in how “Republican” Thom Tillis treats the DHS Secretary who allowed 15M unvetted illegal aliens in the U.S. versus the one who is trying to deport them

The result was emphatic. Roughly 95 percent of Republican primary voters supported the measure, signaling near-universal agreement among grassroots conservatives that American civil law must always be grounded in the U.S. and Texas Constitutions.

If you’ve been reading news for the last few years, you been reading that the U.S. Navy was on the verge of obsolescence, especially in a direct fight with the increasingly powerful Iranian naval forces. No, really. Iran had ultrafast supercavitating torpedoes from Russia, so the aircraft carrier had become a white elephant. If the Americans ever dared to attack Iran, the Iranians would just drop all the carriers like it was sinking three-foot putts. The shooting hasn’t stopped, so maybe we’ll still see the ugly spectacle of the Iranians sinking an American warship. There’s always room for a war to go sideways. But it doesn’t look like they have much left to shoot torpedoes from.

California’s Anti-Gun AG Wants to Dictate Law to Rest of Nation
https://bearingarms.com/tomknighton/2026/03/05/californias-anti-gun-ag-wants-to-dictate-law-to-rest-of-nation-n1231770
A lawsuit filed by Calif. Att. Gen. Rob Bonta and San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu is targeting the Gatalog Foundation Inc. and CTRLPEW LLC.California claims that Gatalog and CTRLPEW are providing prohibited persons with plans to make “ghost guns” (3D printed firearms without serial numbers). Matthew Larosiere, who is an attorney in Florida and is loosely connected to hobby gunsmiths via Gatalog, is one of the people California is suing. He explains in this video interview that what they call “Gatalog” is just hobbyists who found each other on the internet. They are not selling guns. They are talking about and toying with concepts for guns digitally. “If California can regulate access to the instructions,” said Larosiere. “Not just by California, but with this lawsuit, [then] what they’re saying is they want to regulate the entire internet worldwide. That would mean that you’d be cut off at the heels from making a gun at home. And I think most of us can agree that if you have a right to keep and bear something, it necessarily subsumes the right to acquire it.” When asked about Gatalog, Larosiere explained that it is not a group “like the NRA. There’s no member that has a card; there’s no board of directors; there’s no nothing. It’s kind of just a group of hobbyists associating around an idea. And the idea is home gunsmithing.” California has a long history of trying to dictate to the country what it should and shouldn’t do. They create standards that industries are obliged to follow, even if the rest of us want nothing to do with them, and we’ve accepted it because the companies are the ones making the decision to use those standards throughout the nation.

https://gellerreport.com/2026/03/watch-hegseth-salutes-israels-unmatched-skill-and-iron-determination.html/
The Pentagon recently named Israel a model ally. The Trump Administration understands the value of the extraordinary U.S-Israel alliance. Unfortunately, there are many despicable politicians in the United States (here, here, here) who seek to undermine the U.S-Israel alliance, so that they can obtain the pro-Jihad vote. All rational American voters should reject politicians who seek to harm the U.S-Israel alliance. Discarding an incredibly valuable ally to obtain the jihad vote is horrible for America.
“To our steadfast partner, Israel, your mission is being executed with unmatched skill and iron determination. Fighting shoulder to shoulder with such a capable ally is a true force multiplier and a breath of fresh air. We salute your courage and your contribution.”

Congressional Dems Worry About Retaliatory Strikes at Home (but Apparently Not Enough to Fund DHS)

The congressional Democrats continue to prove what their number one priority is, which is to oppose anything and everything President Trump does…Senator Mark Kelly (one of the notorious “Seditious Six”) and is among Democrats concerned that Operation Epic Fury in Iran could also spark retaliatory strikes in the U.S…If Democrats like Kelly actually shared Trump’s concern about retaliatory strikes maybe they wouldn’t be blocking something:

Want a machine gun? These states might soon make buying one easier
https://www.theblaze.com/news/want-a-machine-gun-these-states-might-soon-make-acquisition-easier
Machine guns — defined by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives as a firearm that can fire “automatically more than one shot, without manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger” — are heavily regulated in the United States. While such weapons can be privately owned, Americans are greatly limited in what they can buy and must jump through numerous hoops to seal the deal. In West Virginia, Republican state Sens. Chris Rose and Zack Maynard recently introduced legislation that would establish within the West Virginia State Police an office of public defense that would oversee the procurement and sale of machine guns to “qualified members of the public,” namely any citizen presently eligible to purchase and possess firearms under West Virginia and federal law.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Alamo – Throwback post from the old blog.
https://thelawdogfiles.substack.com/p/the-alamo
2200 hours, D-1, one hundred and ninety years ago General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna ordered that the artillery barrage which had fallen upon the Alamo Mission near San Antonio de Bexar for twelve days be halted.
As he suspected, the exhausted defenders soon fell into a deep sleep, for most, the only sleep that they had managed during the course of the siege.
Just after 0000 hours, 06 MAR 1836, eighteen hundred Mexican infantry troops formed into four columns. 500 Mexican cavalry rode into position around the besieged mission, to prevent the escape of, well, anyone — be they Texan defenders, or Mexican troopies.
At about 0530 hours, the three Texan sentries posted outside of the walls were silently killed, followed by the music of the Mexican bugles sounding the charge. This woke the defenders, and for the next fifteen minutes it really sucked to be a Mexican soldier. The columns they were arranged in only allowed the front line of troops to fire safely. Those firing muskets from any position behind the front line, often as not fired through the front line of Mexican soldiers. Their own artillery behind them inflicted massive blue-on-blue casualties, while the defenders opened up with their own cannon — loaded with nails, chopped horse-shoes and even the hinges from the doors of the building.
Not to say that they were all ineffective. Colonel William B. Travis was killed during this time by a lucky shot to the head as he stood on top of the wall to get a better shot into the massed formation below him with his shotgun.
Pushed on by their reinforcing elements, the Mexicans mounted three different assaults, finally getting General Juan Amador over the wall, where he got a postern door open, which allowed the attackers to swarm the Mission.
One band of defenders — Davy Crockett for certain, and probably his frontiersmen volunteers — took up a position behind a low wall in front of the chapel, and made the Valkyries earn their overtime pay. When the Mexicans pressed too close to reload, the frontiersmen swung their rifles as clubs or switched to tomahawks and knives and exacted a terrible toll before being overrun.
An American slave named Ben, who was a cook for the Mexican army during the attack, states that Crockett went down swinging his rifle and was found surrounded by sixteen dead Mexican soldiers.
For the next hour or so, the Mexican army discovered exactly how bad Military Operations in Interior Urban Environments sucks, as they fought room-to-room in the Alamo. Just the attempt to replace the Texas flag on the roof of one building cost four Mexicans the ferryman’s fee, before the fifth finally managed to replace the flag of Texas with the flag of Mexico.
Room by room, in the dark and confusion, the Mexicans died, but replacements kept coming, sparing no defenders. Colonel Jim Bowie, too sick to rise from his bed, still managed to kill three or four Mexican troops with his pistols and famous knife, before being shot and bayoneted.
At about 0630 hours 06 MAR 1836, the last 11 defenders of the Alamo were killed manning the pair of 12-pounder cannon stationed in the chapel.
Surveying the scene after the bullets stopped banging and the bodies quit bouncing, General Santa Anna remarked, “It is but a small affair.” Hearing this, a staff officer stated, “Another victory like this, and we’ll go to the devil.”
When Jim Bowie’s mother was informed of his death, she very calmly announced: “I’ll wager no wounds were found in his back.”
Indeed.
189 defenders of the Alamo died this day 190 years ago. They took a full third of the attacking force with them.
When news of the Alamo got out, men flocked to the Texas army, and on the afternoon of 21 APR 1836, Texas remembered the Alamo, and took a full 18 minutes to toad-stomp the crap out of the Mexican army at the Battle of San Jacinto, taking General Santa Anna prisoner in the process.

We still remember the Alamo.

Move Over COVID: TDS is Here
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/03/move_over_covid_tds_is_here.html
Praise for Trump in Denmark will draw amazing criticism from the locals… their anger with Donald Trump was now palpable and has, in my opinion, reached the point where I can say with confidence that TDS has now officially become America’s greatest export — and we didn’t need an accident in a Chinese lab in Wuhan to make it happen…..TDS is the new COVID…..This pandemic of anger is not something that can be prevented by a vaccine nor can it be treated with any known drug, and it is spreading largely because of the growing number of people who are diametrically opposed to Donald Trump, the MAGA movement and the American brand of conservatism in general. These people have become so consumed by rage that they have allowed that rage and frustration to become the guiding measurement of everything that Donald Trump does or says.

Herrera is making fun of Nazis there. What’s more, if you dig a little deeper, you’ll find that he does things like this for whatever era and region a firearm is from. It’s funny they didn’t grab any of the clips of him dealing with guns from communist countries, isn’t it? I mean, they exist, including at least one where he’s dressed as Castro…Mr. Herrera uses satire in his videos about historical weapons. This is one example. You will see more by watching his videos.

California has launched a huge crackdown on criminals buying and registering supercars outside of the state to avoid eye-popping sales tax. (https://nypost.com/2026/02/25/us-news/californias-taxes-cost-of-living-crisis-crushes-six-figure-salaries/)…In the Golden State base rate sales tax is 7.25%. For a Lamborghini or Ferrari that can reach up to $250,000 or higher, that can mean a tax bill over $18,000. In Montana it is zero… accused of filing false records showing the supercars were bought in Montana but then drove and kept them in California…California AG Rob Bonta said: “When bad actors abuse legal loopholes and submit fraudulent documents to evade their obligations, the California Department of Justice will not stand idly by.“Every dollar of unpaid taxes is a dollar taken from California’s roads, schools and the vital services our communities rely on.”… asked if those with Montana plates had issues, the reply was: “Not yet.”

Democrats Can’t Win Elections without Fraud
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/03/democrats_can_t_win_elections_without_fraud.html
Every illegal vote cancels an American citizen’s vote. And the left loves it…Twelve states (California, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Pennsylvania, and Vermont) plus Washington, D.C., essentially allow people to vote at the polls without documentation. In addition, Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming accept IDs without photos. Arizona and Montana provide alternatives to photo ID requirements. Voters in Hawaii, Oregon, Utah, and Washington primarily vote by mail. Most of the remaining states that require some kind of ID at the polls still provide other options, including the casting of provisional ballots, the attestation of a would-be voter’s eligibility by another registered voter with ID, and the signing of affidavits declaring one’s eligibility. In other words, most states run a Frankensteinian hodgepodge of the “honor system,” “pinky swears,” and “bro hugs.”

I Voted Today

There were local elections in New Hampshire today.

My town has an official population of around 5,500 residents. Of that 65 to 75% are registered to vote, or 3575-4125 people.

My vote today was 0.12% of the total number of votes.

There were a total of 821 people who voted today.

People, get out and vote. The number of people who make the effort is so small that your vote is huge.

As a side note, as I was watching the machine register my votes, the guy handing out the “I Voted” sticker said, “I don’t have to wait to give you a free “I Voted” sticker.”

“That isn’t free.”

“What? Huh?”

“Our ancestors paid for our freedom to vote with blood, sweat, and the lives of their loved ones.”

The ballot guy went silent, the poll watcher went silent, and the guy handing out stickers went silent. Then the guy handing out stickers said, “That was much better than what I was going to say.”

ABC Poll Stunner: Americans STILL Trust Trump More Than the Dems — and in Every Category, Too!

…In 2024, Donald Trump — the thrice-married, twice-impeached, self-aggrandizing billionaire — won a landslide electoral victory over his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump didn’t win because he’s perfect; yet again, perfect wasn’t on the menu. He won because he was the better option…the qualities that make him so appealing often come with a cost. He’s a man with rough edges…More than any politician in recent memory, polling almost always exaggerates Trump’s weakness and underplays his strength, leading to “surprised Pikachu” faces on Election Day. Part of the reason is the MAGAverse’s distrust of pollsters, but it runs deeper than that.

Wild LI (Long Island) geezer built basement shooting range and staggering gun lab — just steps from Chaminade High School: DA

Wild LI geezer built basement shooting range and staggering gun lab — just steps from Chaminade High School: DA

crazy Long Island geezer allegedly transformed his basement into a makeshift shooting range equipped with an incredible arsenal of self-built machine guns, including a “weapon of mass killing” — set just steps away from several schools. 

Wen-Lone Chou, 67, operated a sprawling suburban gun lab inside his Mineola home down the road from Chaminade High School, a Mineola school soccer field and a nearby elementary school — that was fit with a 25-foot-long DIY shooting range in his basement, prosecutors alleged.

After a year-long, multi-agency probe, cops arrested Chou Wednesday after rifling through his home, where they discovered a staggering cache of firepower.

“What’s even more terrifying — this illegal, dangerous activity was happening steps away from several schools,” Nassau County District Attorney Anne Donnelly told reporters Thursday.

Police uncovered 10 mostly illegal guns, including seven assault-style rifles, a home-assembled fully automatic MP5-style weapon, a 9mm ghost gun with illegal parts, 78 high-capacity magazines — some stashed in Chou’s ceiling — along with six suppressors, roughly 6,000 rounds of ammo, and a rapid-fire switch capable of turning rifles into machine guns.

The only legal weapon in the home was an old bolt-action hunting rifle, Donnelly said.

Investigators also uncovered five completed lower frames — which are handgun and AR-style platforms awaiting additional components to be completed — along with parts capable of assembling yet another MP5-style firearm and even turning his AR-style weapons into a fully automatic killing machine. 

Chou built a fully functioning 25-foot underground firing range in his basement.Nassau County District Attorney

After a year-long, multiagency investigation, authorities searched inside Chou’s home on Feb. 25, where cops came across a staggering cache of firepower.Brandon Cruz / NYPost

“[Chou] had all the components to assemble an actual machine gun,” Donnelly said.

“This tiny item right here can effectively turn these firearms into machine guns,” she added, holding up the small metal “switch” device prosecutors said can transform a semi-automatic rifle into a full auto weapon.

“It makes an already deadly weapon, a weapon of mass killing.”

But what truly stunned authorities was what they said was hidden below Chou’s house — a fully functioning 25-foot underground firing tunnel, with the walls lined with blue tarps to contain debris and sound, and a four-inch-thick plywood target riddled with rounds. 

Chou used suppressors while firing in his tunnel so neighbors and children across the street wouldn’t hear the shots ring out, authorities alleged.

The four-inch-thick plywood board, still riddled with bullets, that Chou used as a target in his basement shooting range.Brandon Cruz for NYPost

The probe launched in January 2025, after Chou was flagged as an alleged frequent online buyer of gun parts from multiple retailers — purchasing roughly 112 firearm-related components over the course of the prior year, according to prosecutors.

“This kind of purchasing pattern is an immediate red flag for our law enforcement,” Donnelly said.

Authorities also learned that Chou’s Nassau County pistol permit had been revoked in 1999 following a domestic incident, though he has no prior arrests — raising even more concern as investigators tracked what they described as an escalating pattern of purchases.

What’s even more terrifying — this illegal, dangerous activity was happening steps away from several schools,” Nassau County DA Anne Donnelly told reporters Thursday. Brandon Cruz for NYPost

Prosecutors are (trying to) determining whether Chou was simply a gun enthusiast who went wildly overboard or if there was a more sinister motive.

There is no evidence, so far, that he sold the weapons or was actively plotting an attack, authorities said.

What do you think? Be the first to comment.

Chou pleaded not guilty in Hempstead court on Thursday. His bail was set at $250,000 cash, $625,000 bond or $1.25 million partially secured, and he was ordered to surrender his passport.

If convicted, he faces up to 15 years in prison.

Three weeks in England and Ireland: signs of unmistakable strain
https://www.collapselife.com/p/reflections-on-a-trip-to-england-and-ireland
Surveillance at the airport, labor shortages in villages, decay in Mayfair. The incremental signs of collapse were seen on a recent international trip. On the surface, everything functioned. Flights ran on time, shops were open, and restaurants and pubs were full of people. But on closer inspection, a few things began to come into view: ∙Travel gatekeeping through electronic travel authorization requiring a phone app and face scan. ∙New homes that restrict wood stoves in damp winter climates. ∙Labor shortages that make basic jobs nearly impossible to hire out. ∙A “no open defecation” sign in one of London’s wealthiest districts. None of these things alone screams collapse, but in the aggregate, they suggest incremental change and the tightening of systems that once felt frictionless.

Soros DA Alvin Bragg Released Career Criminal Who Assaulted NYPD Police Officers

This criminal was also indicted for robbery 3 weeks ago, but was freed once again. Gusmane Coulibaly, 27, was originally charged with assault on a police officer, obstruction of governmental administration and disorderly conduct for his alleged involvement in a snowball free-for-all in Washington Square Park…the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office declined to pursue the cop assault charge during his arraignment Thursday evening….other charges were also downgraded to harassment and obstruction of governmental administration as a second-degree violation and misdemeanor, respectively…A government that restrains the peaceful while tolerating the predatory is not failing. It is choosing.

Trio of Democrat Senators Double Down on Making Illegal Aliens ‘Numero Uno’ Over American Citizens

Democrat Senators Wyden, Hirono and Kelly are asked directly if they prioritize American citizens over illegals.None will answer the question…Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger chose the silent treatment as well…This refusal to put Americans first appears to be a party-wide position…a Democrat’s non-answer is an answer…They can deflect or zip their lips, but we can still hear how they truly feel…It’s pretty clear that Democrats no longer represent Americans. We’re not even on their radar. Illegal aliens come first, which means we come last.

New York City: Muslim Crowd Calls for New, ‘Stronger’ October 7 Jihad Massacre
https://gellerreport.com/2026/02/new-york-city-muslim-crowd-calls-for-new-stronger-october-7-jihad-massacre.html/
New York City has officially become a staging ground for terror sympathizers. Under the shadow of Hamas flags, radicals are now openly calling for mass murder on American streets, promising that their next move will be even louder than the October 7th massacre. This is no longer about free speech; it is a direct threat to national security. If the US government continues to ignore open incitement to violence within its own borders, it is effectively endorsing the chaos. Rubio, are you going to take care of this?

Another Immigration sob story
https://miguelgg.substack.com/p/another-immigration-sob-story
Have people been detained and taken away before Trump for not having a Permanent Resident Card? Abso-effing-lutely. And they got to have a crappy time being processed while they run prints and check for warrants and assorted other nastiness. The only reason this is now worthy of a sob story is because of TDS and not because it is somehow illegal or immoral.

Gun Owner Sues Police After Spending Almost 24 Hours in Jail for Legally Possessed Pistol
https://bearingarms.com/camedwards/2026/02/26/gun-owner-sues-police-after-spending-almost-24-hours-in-jail-for-legally-possessed-pistol-n1231703
8-year-old Maddox Livingston was pulled over by New Roads, Louisiana police on earlier this month for a headlight and license plate lights that were burned out. The traffic stop took a turn, however, when Livingston informed officers that he was exercising his right to carry and had a pistol with him. An office ran the gun’s serial number and told Livingston that it had been reported stolen in Florida. Soon the young man was in handcuffs and on his way to the local jail. There was just one problem: the gun wasn’t stolen, and the officer didn’t check the gun’s serial number. Instead, he ran the pistol’s patent number, which allegedly triggered the false flag.

Be Armed and Ready – the Asymmetrical Battlefield Could Be Here at Home – – – (worth reading in its entirety – jlr)
https://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2026/03/02/be-armed-and-ready-the-asymmetrical-battlefield-could-be-here-at-home-n2672104
Asymmetrical warfare means applying the strengths you have against an overwhelming enemy’s weaknesses. The goat sex pest mullahs have been utterly humiliated by America’s and Israel’s overwhelming military superiority in conventional forces…that doesn’t mean that they don’t have the capacity to strike back, and that doesn’t mean that we don’t have potential weaknesses. Everybody has weaknesses. Ours is located in the United States itself, our homeland, where we’re at. It’s already happening on a small scale, with open immigration poster child Ngdiaga Diagne shooting up a bar in Texas for Allah. We’re vulnerable here, and you are potentially on the front line of this war…What’s our vulnerability? Civilians, normal Americans, who Iranian proxy terrorists could murder in heaps…Iranian jihadis are not superstars, and they’re not super-geniuses. They are cunning and relatively competent at times in doing what they do, and what they do best is attack innocent civilians… it is not unreasonable to assume that the Iranian Republican Guard Corps has infiltrated sleeper cells into the United States. Once activated, they have the potential to go on a murder spree unparalleled in American history…Just remember that the killers don’t have to be Iranian. They can be from Chechnya, Egypt, Afghanistan, Turkistan, or some other random -stan. The Iranians aren’t picky about who they work with….Time to be ready. Time to be armed.

Sepah-e Qods – The wild card
https://thelawdogfiles.substack.com/p/sepah-e-qods
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps the department responsible for unconventional warfare, foreign intelligence, and “covert extraterritorial operations” is the Quds Force…the Quds Force is best thought of as the result if you took a dash of wish-dot-com CIA, a smidgen of Temu JSOC, a hefty dose of inshallah, a giant glug of Twelver fanaticism, and ran it all through an absentee Russian blender…The Quds Force runs paramilitary training camps for Budding Young Terrorists, sets up weapons factories for militias and terrorist groups, manages mullah bank accounts in China, dabbles in the drug trade, recruits terror cells, and the occasional Direct Action…the Quds Force’s worldview, the world is divided into four Command Centres, and another six “Corps”. Guess who’s in the Ninth Corps of the Sepah-e Qods?…“North America”…There are most certainly IRGC-QF cells in the United States….the Quds Force is better at winding up Useful Idiots and turning them loose…Yes, they’re here. Look for a minor uptick in Islamicist violence until they get turfed off to the Choir Eternal, rounded up by the authorities, or bugger-off on their own.

The usual amount of bemoaning and sleeve-tearing id happening among the Liberals and other whiners about the attack on Iran’s regime. And of course, the first thing you will hear from the alleged “Intelligentsia” is how the CIA in 1953 backed a coup that led to the imposition of Sha Reza Pahlavi and the horrendous misdeeds of the Savak Security Police which led to the coup of 1979 and the raise of Islamism and Khomeini…Iranians everywhere in the planet seem to be celebrating the possibility of a Mullah-Less Persia much to the dismay of the “experts”…in the incoming weeks, you will be told by “Your Betters” in the Media that the people above are wrong to celebrate and that the old status quo was better for everybody. Why? Don’t ask, your little brain could not comprehend it which is why they call themselves better than you.

SWAT Team Used to Arrest Man Charged With Possessing 38 Rounds of Ammo Without a Permit
https://bearingarms.com/camedwards/2026/03/01/swat-team-arrest-man-charged-ammo-without-a-permit-n1231722
In Illinois, possessing so much as a single round of ammunition without a Firearms Owner ID (or FOID) card is a serious crime…residents of Lake in the Hills, Illinois got a first hand view of that law being enforced last Thursday, when a SWAT unit rolled up on a house where a 20-year-old man was believed to be possessing ammunition without a permit…Illinois, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New Jersey are the only states where a permit or license is required to purchase or possess ammunition, and California and New York require background checks on the sale of ammunition…Illinois’ FOID card requirement has been ruled unconstitutional more than once, but each time the state Supreme Court has reversed those decisions on technical grounds while avoiding the underlying constitutional question
